Lyrics

A toast to the groom (to the groom, to the groom, to the groom)
 To the bride (to the bride, to the bride, to the bride)
 From your sister (Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
 Who is always by your side (by your side, by your side)
 To your union and the hope that you provide (you provide, you provide)
 ♪
 May you always (always) be satisfied (rewind)
 ♪
 Rewind
 ♪
 I remember that night, I just might
 I remember that night, I just might
 I remember that night, I remember that-
 I remember that night, I just might
 Regret that night for the rest of my days
 I remember those soldier boys
 Trippin' over themselves to win our praise
 I remember that dreamlike candlelight
 Like a dream that you can't quite place
 But Alexander
 I'll never forget the first time I saw your face
 I have never been the same
 Intelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame
 And when you said, "Hi," I forgot my dang name
 Set my heart aflame, every part aflame
 This is not a game
 You strike me as a woman who has never been satisfied
 I'm sure I don't know what you mean, you forget yourself
 You're like me, I've never been satisfied
 
 Is that right? I have never been satisfied (hey)
 ♪
 My name's Angelica Schuyler
 Alexander Hamilton
 Where's your family from?
 Unimportant, there's a million things I haven't done
 Just you wait, just you wait
 So, so, so
 So, this is what it feels like to match wits
 With someone at your level, what the hell is the catch?
 It's the feelin' of freedom, of seein' the light
 It's Ben Franklin with a key and a kite, you see it, right?
 The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutes
 Everythin' we said in total agreement
 It's a dream and it's a bit of a dance
 A bit of a posture, it's a bit of a stance
 He's a bit of a flirt, but I'ma give him a chance
 I asked about his family, did you see his answer?
 His hands started fidgetin', he looked askance
 He's penniless, he's flyin' by the seat of his pants
 Handsome, boy, does he know it
 Peach fuzz, and he can't even grow it
 I wanna take him far away from this place
 Then I turn and see my sister's face, and she is
 Helpless
 And I know she is
 Helpless
 And her eyes are just
 Helpless
 And I realize three fundamental truths
 At the exact same time
 ♪
 I'm a girl in a world in which
 My only job is to marry rich
 My father has no sons, so I'm the one
 Who has to social climb for one
 'Cause I'm the oldest and the wittiest
 And the gossip in New York City is insidious
 And Alexander is penniless
 Ha! That doesn't mean I want him any less
 (Doesn't mean I want him any less)
 (Doesn't mean to me I want him any less)
 (Doesn't mean I want him any less)
 He's after me 'cause I'm a Schuyler sister
 That elevates his status, I'd
 Have to be naive to set that aside
 Maybe that is why I introduce him to Eliza
 Now that's his bride
 Nice going, Angelica, he was right
 You will never be satisfied
 (You will never be satisfied)
 
 (You will never be satisfied)
 I know my sister like I know my own mind
 You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind
 
 If I tell her that I love him she'd be silently resigned
 He'd be mine, she would say, "I'm fine," but she'd be lyin'
 
 But when I fantasize at night
 It's Alexander's eyes
 As I romanticize what might have been
 If I hadn't sized him up so quickly
 
 At least my dear Eliza's his wife
 ♪
 At least I keep his eyes in my life
 ♪
 To the groom (to the groom, to the groom, to the groom)
 To the bride (to the bride, to the bride, to the bride)
 From your sister (Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
 Who is always by your side (by your side, by your side)
 To your union and the hope that you provide (you provide, you provide)
 ♪
 May you always be satisfied
 ♪
 And I know (yeah)
 She'll be happy as his bride
 And I know
 He will never be satisfied
 I will never be satisfied
