Theodosia writes me a letter every day
I'm keeping the bed warm
while her husband is away
He's on the British side in Georgia
He's trying to keep the colonies inline
but he can keep all of Georgia
Theodosia she's mine
Love doesn't discriminate
between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep loving anyway
we laugh and we cry and we break
And we make our mistakes
and if there's a reason
I'm by her side
when so many have tried
then I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it
My grandfather was a fire
and brimstone preacher
but there are things that the
homilies and hymns won't teach ya
My mother was a genius
My father commanded respect
When they died they left no instructions
just a legacy to protect
Death doesn't discriminate
between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep living anyway
We rise and we fall and we break
and we make our mistakes
And if there's a reason
I'm still alive
when everyone who loves me has died
I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it
I am the one thing in life
I can control
I am inimitable
I am an original
I'm not falling behind or running late
I'm not standing still
I am lying in wait
Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
He has something to prove
He has nothing to lose
Hamilton's pace is relentless
He wastes no time
What is it like in his shoes
Hamilton doesn't hesitate
He exhibits no restraint
He takes and he takes and he takes
and he keeps winning anyway
He changes the game
He plays and he raises the stakes
And if there's a reason
He seems to thrive
when so few survive
then goddamnit
I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it
Life doesn't discriminate
between the sinners and saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
We rise
and we fall
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
when so many have died
then I'm willin' to
Wait for it
Wait for it
