Текст песни

Theodosia writes me a letter every day, day
I'm keeping the bed warm while her husband is away, way
He's on the British side in Georgia
He's trying to keep the colonies inline
Well he can keep all of Georgia
Theodosia, she's mine

Love doesn't discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes
We keep loving anyway
We laugh and we cry and we
If there's a reason I'm by her side
When so many have tried
Then I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it, wait for it

My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher
But there are things that the
Homilies and hymns won't teach ya, teach ya
My mother was a genius
My father commanded respect, respect
When they died they left no instructions
Just a legacy to protect

Death doesn't discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
And we keep living anyway
We rise and we fall
If there's a reason I'm still alive
When everyone who loves me has died
I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it

Gonna wait for it
I am the one thing in life I can control
I am inimitable
I am an original
I'm not falling behind or running late
I'm not standing still
I am lying in wait
Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
He has something to prove
He has nothing to lose
Hamilton's pace is relentless
He wastes no time
Oh what is it like in his shoes?

Hamilton doesn't hesitate
He exhibits no restraint
He takes and he takes and he takes
And he keeps winning anyway
He changes the game
He plays and he raises the stakes
And if there's a reason
He seems to thrive when so few survive, then goddamnit
I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it

Life doesn't discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
And we keep living anyway
We rise and we fall
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
When so many have died
I'm willin' to-
Yeah
I'm going to wait for it
I'm going to wait for it
