Un-musical it - That Would Be Enough (Hamilton)

(Hamilton enters stage left to find Eliza sitting on a bench. She stands to greet him, her stomach swollen. She is pregnant.)296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU6HDh1j7I

Hamilton: ...How long have you known?296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZCn34y6oL

Eliza: A month or so.

Hamilton: Eliza, you should have told me. 296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iEptqCq0z

Eliza: I wrote to the general a month ago-296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC46ms2tBf1

Hamilton: No.296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V8ipP3A7C

Eliza: I told him to send you home. 296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciODs5TsBf

Hamilton: (quieter) You should have told me...296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvG4makBOE

Eliza: Well, I'm not sorry. I knew you'd fight until the war was done-296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GBHyxlvp4

Hamilton: (muttering) The war's not done...296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1ghZnylPf

Eliza: (continuing) But you deserve a chance to meet your son. You don't know how lucky we are to be alive right now. 296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQL1YS2fta

Hamilton: (bitter) Will you relish being a poor man's wife? A poor man unable to provide for you? For a child?296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPmaH9mx3A

Eliza: I relish being your wife. 296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPa8bqg8m4o

(There is a moment of silence as Hamilton looks at Eliza in surprise)296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE3Vqn0cVP

Eliza: Look around. Look at where you are. Look at where you started. You used to be an immigrant from a place no one knew about, trying to gain an education in a place you weren't respected. Now, you write for General Washington, a man who is going to bring us independence. How can anyone not respect you now? 296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96bcNrTri5

Not to mention, the fact that you're alive is a miracle. You've lived twice as long as expected. Just please, stay alive, that would be enough.

And if this child has a fraction of your smile or a fragment of your mind, (laughs) look out world! That would be enough. 296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmjSq6bfY2

I don't pretend to know the challenges your facing, the worlds you create and erase in your mind. But I am not afraid. I know who I married. I don't need you to be famous or the most successful man in America, just as long as you come home at the end of the day, everyday...that would be enough.

We don't need a legacy. We don't need money. And if I can grant you peace of mind...if you can let me inside your heart...296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmO19EUGfV2

There will be a narrative written about you one day. Let me be a part of it. Let this moment be the first chapter, the one where you decide to stay...

Oh, and I could be enough! And we could be enough. That would be enough...

(Lost in the moment, Eliza looks at Hamilton again. He is crying. Another beat, and they embrace.)296Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNBEelDNBC
