Karaoké Helpless Hamilton

Ooh, I do I do I do I do

Hey

Ooh, I do I do I do I do boy you got me

Helpless, look into your eyes and the sky's the limit

I'm helpless down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em

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 dazzling the room

Then you walked in and my heart went "Boom !"

Tryin' to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom

Everybody's dancin' and the band's top volume

Grab my sister, and whisper

"Yo, this one's mine"

My sister made her way across the room to you

And I got nervous, thinking what's she gonna do?

She grabbed you by the arm

I'm thinkin' "I'm through"

Then you look back at me and suddenly

I'm helpless oh look at those eyes oh

Yeah I'm helpless

I know

I'm so into you

I am so into you

I know I'm down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em

Where are you taking me?

I'm about to change your life

Then by all means lead the way

Elizabeth Schuyler it's a pleasure to meet you

Schuyler?

My sister

Thank you for all your service

If it takes fighting a war for us to meet it will have been worth it

I'll leave you to it

One week later

I'm writin' a letter nightly

Now my life gets better every letter that you write me

Laughin' at my sister 'cos she wants to form a harem

I'm just sayin' if you really loved me you would share him

Ha! Two weeks later in the living room stressin'

My father's stone-faced while you're asking for his blessin'

I'm dying inside as you wine and dine

And I'm tryin' not to cry 'cos there's nothing that your mind can't do

My father makes his way across the room to you

I panic for a second thinking we're through

But then he shakes your hand and says "Be true"

And you turn back to me smiling and I'm helpless

Hoo!

That boy is mine

That boy is mine

Helpless down for the count and I'm drownin' in em

Drownin'

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's my honor 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 livin' 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

And long as I'm alive

Eliza, swear to God you'll never feel so

I do I do I do I do

I do I do I do I do

Yeah yeah

Eliza

I've never felt so

Now my life is gone be fine 'cos Eliza's in it

I look into your eyes and the sky's the limit

I'm drownin' in 'em
