The Story of Tonight Lyrics

[HAMILTON]
I may not live to see our glory!

[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/LAURENS]
I may not live to see our glory!

[HAMILTON]
But I will gladly join the fight!

[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/LAURENS]
But I will gladly join the fight!

[HAMILTON]
And when our children tell our story…

[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/LAURENS]
And when our children tell our story…

[HAMILTON]
They'll tell the story of tonight

[MULLIGAN]
Let's have another round tonight

[LAFAYETTE]
Let's have another round tonight

[HAMILTON]
Let's have another round tonight

[LAURENS]
Raise a glass to freedom
Something they can never take away
No matter what they tell you
Raise a glass to the four of us

[LAURENS/MULLIGAN]
Tomorrow there'll be more of us

[MULLIGAN/LAFAYETTE/LAURENS]
Telling the story of tonight

[HAMILTON]
They'll tell the story of tonight

[LAURENS/MULLIGAN/LAFAYETTE]
Raise a glass to freedom
Something they can never take away

[HAMILTON]
No matter what they tell you

[MULLIGAN/LAFAYETTE]
Let's have another round tonight

[LAURENS]
Raise a glass to the four of us

[HAMILTON/LAURENS/MULLIGAN/LAFAYETTE]
Tomorrow there'll be more of us

[HAMILTON/LAURENS]
Telling the story of tonight

[MULLIGAN/LAFAYETTE]
Let's have another round tonight

[HAMILTON/LAURENS/
ENSEMBLE & MULLIGAN/LAFAYETTE/ENSEMBLE]
They'll tell the story of tonight
Raise a glass to freedom
They'll tell the story of tonight
Raise a glass to freedom
They'll tell the story of tonight
They'll tell the story of—
