Book full of song lyrics that I like

That would be enough

That would be enough

Song by: Hamilton (Musical)

Sung by: Phillipa Soo as Eliza, and Lin-Manuel Miranda as Hamilton

{Eliza:}

Look around, look around at how lucky we are

To be alive right now

Look around, look around...

{Hamilton:}

How long have you known?

{Eliza:}

A month or so

{Hamilton:}

Eliza, you should have told me

{Eliza:}

I wrote to the General a month ago

{Hamilton:}

No

{Eliza:}

I begged him to send you home

{Hamilton:}

You should have told me

{Eliza:}

I'm not sorry...

I knew you'd fight

Until the war was won

(Hamilton: The war's not Done.)

But you deserve a chance to meet your son

Look around, look around at how lucky we are

To be alive right now.

{Hamilton:}

Will you relish being a poor man's wife

Unable to provide for your life?

{Eliza:}

I relish being your wife

Look around, look around...

Look at where you are

Look at where you started

The fact that you're alive is a miracle

Just stay alive, that would be enough

And if this child

Shares a fraction of your smile

Or a fragment of your mind, look out world!

That would be enough

I don't pretend to know

The challenges you're facing

The worlds you keep erasing and creating in your mind

But I'm not afraid

I know who I married

So long as you come home at the end of the day

That would be enough

We don't need a legacy

We don't need money

If I could grant you peace of mind

If you could let me inside your heart...

Oh, let me be a part of the narrative

In the story they will write someday

Let this moment be the first chapter:

Where you decide to stay

And I could be enough

And we could be enough

That would be enough
