One Last Time歌词

作词 : Lin-Manuel Miranda
作曲 : Lin-Manuel Miranda
{HAMILTON}Mr. President, you asked to see me?
{WASHINGTON}I know you're busy
[HAMILTON]What do you need, sir? Sir?
[WASHINGTON]I wanna give you a word of warning
[HAMILTON]Sir, I don't know what you heard
But whatever it is, Jefferson started it
[WASHINGTON]Thomas Jefferson resigned this morning
[HAMILTON]You're kidding
[WASHINGTON]I need a favor
[HAMILTON]Whatever you say, sir, Jefferson will pay for his behavior
[WASHINGTON]Shh. Talk less
[HAMILTON]I'll use the press
I'll write under a pseudonym, you'll see what I can do to him-
[WASHINGTON]I need you to draft an address
[HAMILTON]Yes! He resigned. You can finally speak your mind---
[WASHINGTON]No, he's stepping down so he can run for President
[HAMILTON]Ha. Good luck defeating you, sir
[WASHINGTON]I'm stepping down. I'm not running for President
[HAMILTON]I'm sorry, what?
[WASHINGTON]One last time
Relax, have a drink with me
One last time
Let's take a break tonight
And then we'll teach them how to say goodbye
To say goodbye
You and I
[HAMILTON]
[WASHINGTON]I wanna talk about neutrality
[HAMILTON]Sir, with Britain and France on the verge of war, is this the best time-
[WASHINGTON]I want to warn against partisan fighting
[HAMILTON]
[WASHINGTON]Pick up a pen, start writing
I wanna talk about what I have learned
The hard-won wisdom I have earned
[HAMILTON]As far as the people are concerned
You have to serve, you could continue to serve-
[WASHINGTON]No! One last time
The people will hear from me
One last time
And if we get this right
We're gonna teach 'em how to say Goodbye
you and I
[HAMILTON]Mr. President, they will say you're weak
[WASHINGTON]No, they will see we're strong
[HAMILTON]Your position is so unique
[WASHINGTON]So I'll use it to move them along
[HAMILTON]Why do you have to say goodbye?
[WASHINGTON]If I say goodbye, the nation learns to move on
It outlives me when I'm gone
Like the scripture says:、
"Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree"
And no one shall make them afraid."
They'll be safe in the nation we've made
I wanna sit under my own vine and fig tree
A moment alone in the shade
At home in this nation we've made
One last time
[HAMILTON]One last time
[HAMILTON]Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors. I shall also carry with me
[HAMILTON][WASHINGTON]The hope That my country will View them with indulgence;And that After forty-five years of my life dedicated to its service with an upright zeal The faults of incompetent abilities will be Consigned to oblivion, as I myself must soon be to the mansions of rest.I anticipate with pleasing expectation that retreat in which I promise myself to realize the sweet enjoyment of partaking, in the midst of my fellow-citizens, the benign influence of good laws Under a free government,the ever-favorite object of my heart, and the happy reward, as I trust Of our mutual cares, labors, and dangers.
[WASHINGTON]One last time
[ALL WOMEN]George Washington's going home!
[HAMILTON]Teach 'em how to say goodbye
[Company]George Washington's going home!
[WASHINGTON]You and I
[Company]George Washington's going home!
Going home
[Company]George Washington's going home!
History has its eyes on you
[Company]George Washington's going home!
We're gonna teach 'em how to say goodbye!
Teach 'em how to say goodbye!
To say goodbye

One last time!
