"Champagne (Film Version)" lyrics

Melissa Barrera & Anthony Ramos Lyrics

"Champagne (Film Version)"
(from "In The Heights" soundtrack)

[Vanessa:]
So I got you a present
I went next door to get it
Doing anything tonight?

[Usnavi:]
Cleaning

[Vanessa:]
You're done for the day

[Usnavi:]
No way

[Vanessa:]
'Cause we got a date

[Usnavi:]
Okay...

[Vanessa:]
Before you board that plane
I owe you a bottle of cold champagne

[Usnavi:]
No...

[Vanessa:]
Yeah, cold champagne

[Usnavi:]
Damn, the bottle's all sweaty and everything
You went and got this...

[Vanessa:]
Pop the champagne

[Usnavi:]
I don't know if we have coffee cups
Or plastic cups, I already packed the cups...

[Vanessa:]
Tonight we're drinking straight from the bottle. Usnavi?

[Usnavi:]
Yeah?

[Vanessa:]
Daniela told me what you did for me
And it's honestly the sweetest thing anyone ever did for me
Now, what can I say or do to possibly repay you for your kindness?

[Usnavi:]
How do you get this gold shit off?

[Vanessa:]
Usnavi!

[Usnavi:]
Yeah!

[Vanessa:]
Before we go leave town!
Before the corner changes and the signs are taken down
Let's walk around the neighborhood and say our goodbyes
Usnavi, are you alright?

[Usnavi:]
I'm fine, I'm tryn'a open this champagne
You see the twisty thing is broken
But I'm gonna open this damn champagne!

[Vanessa:]
Let me see it

[Usnavi:]
No, I got it!

[Vanessa:]
Yo, Usnavi, drop the champagne!

[Usnavi:]
I mean you went through all this trouble to get us a little bubbly...

[Vanessa:]
And it's gonna be okay

[Usnavi:]
I'm sorry, it's been a long day

[Vanessa:]
You oughta stay

[Usnavi:]
What?

[Vanessa:]
You can stay uptown, maybe save this place

[Usnavi:]
Ha ha, very funny

[Vanessa:]
And it's not like Sonny's got role models...

[Usnavi:]
Role models?

[Vanessa:]
Stepping up to the plate...

[Usnavi:]
Yo, what are you talking about?

[Vanessa:]
I'm just saying, I think your vacation can wait...

[Usnavi:]
Vacation? Vanessa, you left us too...

[Vanessa:]
And I moved down to West Fourth Street, you can take the A...

[Usnavi:]
What are you trying to say?

[Vanessa:]
You're leaving the country, and we're never gonna see you again...

[Usnavi:]
So, what are you trying to say?

[Vanessa:]
You get everyone addicted to your coffee and off you go

[Usnavi:]
Vanessa, I don't know why you're mad at me

[Vanessa:]
I wish I was mad...
I'm just too late
