Hamilton - Dear Theodosia Lyrics |
Broadway musical (2015) Hamilton the Musical - Dear Theodosia Lyrics
"Dear Theodosia" is a song from the Broadway musical Hamilton performed by Leslie Odom Jr. (Burr) and Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton).
[Burr] Dear Theodosia what to say to you You have my eyes You have your mother's name When you came into the world you cried and it broke my heart
I'm dedicating everyday to you Domestic life was never quite my style When you smile, you knock me out I fall apart and I thought I was so smart
You will come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you We'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you We'll give the world to you and you'll blow us all away Someday x2 Yeah you'll blow us all away Someday x2
[Hamilton] Oh, Phillip when you smile I am undone, my son Look at my son Pride is not the word I'm looking for There is so much more inside me now
Oh, Phillip you outshine the morning sun, my son When you smile, I fall apart and I thought I was so smart
My father wasn't around
[Burr] My father wasn't around
[Hamilton] I swear that
[Both] I'll be around for you
[Hamilton] I'll do whatever it takes
[Burr] I'll make a million mistakes
[Both] I'll make the world safe and sound for you
You'll come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you We'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you We'll give the world to you and you'll blow us all away Someday x2 Yeah, you'll blow us all away Someday, someday
[Thanks to Priscilla for lyrics]
