That Would Be Enough Lyrics

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

ELIZA & HAMILTON
I knew you’d fight
Until the war was won
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
