[ANGELICA] There are moments that the words don´t reach There is suffering too terrible to name You hold your child as tight as you can And push away the unimaginable
The moments when you´re in so deep It feels easier to just swim down
[ANGELICAENSEMBLE] The Hamiltons move uptown And learn to live with the unimaginable
[HAMILTON] I spend hours in the garden I walk alone to the store And it´s quiet uptown I never liked the quiet before I take the children to church on Sunday A sign of the cross at the door And I pray That never used to happen before
[ANGELICA AND WOMEN]
If you see him in the street, walking by Himself, talking to himself, have pity
[HAMILTON] Philip, you would like it uptown It´s quiet uptown
[ANGELICA AND WOMEN] He is working through the unimaginable
[ALL MEN (EXCEPT HAMILTON)] His hair has gone grey. He passes every day They say he walks the length of the city
[HAMILTON] You knock me out, I fall apart
[COMPANY (EXCEPT HAMILTON AND ELIZA)]
Can you imagine?
[HAMILTON] Look at where we are Look at where we started I know I don´t deserve you, Eliza But hear me out. That would be enough
If I could spare his life If I could trade his life for mine He´d be standing here right now And you would smile, and that would be enough I don´t pretend to know The challenges we´re facing I know there´s no replacing what we´ve lost And you need time But I´m not afraid I know who I married
Just let me stay here by your side That would be enough
[COMPANY (EXCEPT HAMILTON AND ELIZA)] If you see him in the street, walking by her Side, talking by her side, have pity
[HAMILTON] Eliza, do you like it uptown? It´s quiet uptown
[COMPANY (EXCEPT HAMILTON AND ELIZA)] He is trying to do the unimaginable See them walking in the park, long after dark Taking in the sights of the city
[HAMILTON] Look around, look around, Eliza
[COMPANY (EXCEPT HAMILTON AND ELIZA)] They are trying to do the unimaginable
[ANGELICA] There are moments that the words don´t reach There is a grace too powerful to name We push away what we can never understand We push away the unimaginable They are standing in the garden Alexander by Eliza´s side She takes his hand
[ELIZA] It´s quiet uptown
[COMPANY (EXCEPT HAMILTON AND ELIZA)] Forgiveness. Can you imagine? Forgiveness. Can you imagine?
If you see him in the street, walking by her Side, talking by her side, have pity They are going through the unimaginable
