This short song involves Eliza asking Alexander to come back to bed, but Alexander says that he has an important meeting he must plan (a dual with Burr). The two make their peace and Alexander goes on his way.

"Best of Wives and Best of Women" is a shorter song that is right before the climax of the musical. Continuing with the the musical theme of the show, this is to represent the calm and relaxing feeling that Eliza provides Hamilton. It is about to get emotional.
