Текст песни Hamilton Musical OST - 10 - Helpless

[ELIZA (ALL WOMEN EXCEPT ELIZA)]
(Hey hey hey hey)
Ooooh I do I do I do I (hey hey hey hey)
Doooo! Hey! (hey hey hey hey)
Ooooh I do I do I do I (hey hey hey hey)
Doooo! Boy, you got me (hey hey hey)

[ELIZA & WOMEN]
Helpless
Look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit, I'm
Helpless
Down for the count and I’m drowning in ‘em

[ELIZA]
I have never been the type to try and grab the spotlight
We were at a revel with some rebels on a hot night
Laughin’ at my sister as she’s dazzlin’ the room
Then you walked in and my heart went "BOOM"

Trying to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
Everybody’s dancing and the band’s top volume
[ELIZA & WOMEN]
Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
[ELIZA]
Grab my sister and whisper “Yo, this one’s mine.”

[ELIZA (COMPANY)]
(Oooh)
My sister made her way across the room to you (oooh)
And I got nervous thinking what’s she gonna do (oooh)
She grabs you by the arm, I’m thinking I’m through (oooh)
Then you look back at me and suddenly I'm

[ELIZA & (COMPANY), RIFFING]
Helpless (Helpless)
Oh look at those eyes, ooh (Look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit I'm)
I’m helpless (helpless)
I know (Down for the count and I’m drowning in ‘em)
(I'm Helpless) I’m so into you, I am so into you
(Look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit)
(I’m helpless)
I know I’m (down for the count and I’m drownin’ in ‘em)

[HAMILTON]
Where are you taking me?
[ANGELICA]
I’m about to change your life
[HAMILTON]
Then by all means, lead the way
[ELIZA]
Elizabeth Schuyler. It’s a pleasure to meet you
[HAMILTON]
Schuyler?
[ANGELICA]
My sister
[ELIZA]
Thank you for all your service
[HAMILTON]
If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth it
[ANGELICA]
I’ll leave you to it

[ELIZA (WOMEN)]
(One week later), I’m writin’ a letter nightly
Now my life gets better every letter that you write me
Laughin’ at my sister ‘cause she wants to form a harem

[ANGELICA]
I’m just sayin’ if you really loved me you would share him!

[ELIZA]
Ha!

[ELIZA (WOMEN)]
(Two weeks later) in the living room (stressin’)
My father’s stone-faced while you’re askin’ for his (blessing)
I’m dying inside as you wine and dine
And I’m tryin’ not to cry ‘cause there’s nothing that your mind can’t do (ooooh)
My father makes his way across the room to you (oooh)
I panic for a second thinkin’ we’re through (oooh)
But then he shakes your hand and says, “Be true” (oooh)
And you turn back to me smiling and

[WOMEN & (ELIZA), RIFFING]
(I'm) Helpless
Look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit
I’m helpless (Helpless)
Down for the count (Hoo!) and I’m drowning in ‘em
Helpless (That boy is mine. That boy is mine.)
Look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit I’m helpless (Helpless)

[ELIZA & WOMEN]
Down for the count and I’m drowning in ‘em

[HAMILTON]
Yo, Eliza, I don’t have a dollar to my name
An acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
All I have is my honour, a tolerance for pain
A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
Peggy confides in me
Angelica tried to take a bite of me
No stress, my love for you is never in doubt
We’ll get a little place in Harlem and we’ll figure it out
I’ve been living without a family since I was a child
My father left, my mother died, I grew up buckwild
But I’ll never forget my mother’s face, that was real
As long as I’m alive, Eliza, swear to God you’ll never feel so

[WOMEN]
Helpless
[ELIZA]
I do I do I do I do
[HAMILTON]
Eliza
[WOMEN]
Helpless
[ELIZA]
I do I do I do I do
[HAMILTON]
I never felt so
[ELIZA]
Hey! Yeah!
[WOMEN]
Helpless
Down for the count and I’m drowning in ‘em
[ELIZA]
Down for the count and I’m
[HAMILTON]
Yo, my life is going fine cause Eliza’s in it
[ELIZA]
I look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit
I’m
[WOMEN]
Helpless
Down for the count and I’m
[ELIZA & WOMEN]
Drowning in ‘em

In New York you can be a new man
In New York you can be a new man
In New York you can be a new man
