Defying Gravity (From "Wicked'")

Don't be afraid

I'm not. Its the wizard we should be afraid? Its me.

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes: and leap!

It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you can't pull me down!

Quick! Get on!

What?

Come with me. Think of what we could do -together!

Unlimited
Together we're unlimited
Together we'll be the greatest team
There's ever been - Glinda!
Dreams the way we planned 'em

If we work in tandem

Glinda and Elphaba:
There's no fight we cannot win
Just you and I, defying gravity
With you and I defying gravity

They'll never bring us down!

Well, are you coming

(decides to stay behind)

I hope you're happy, now that your choosing this -

You too--
I hope it brings you bliss

Glinda and Elphaba:
I really hope you get it
And you don't live to regret it
I hope you're happy in the end
I hope you're happy my friend

So if you care to find me
Look to the Western sky!
As someone told me lately
Everyone deserves the chance to fly
And if I'm flying solo
At least I'm flying free
To those who ground me
Take a message back from me!

Tell them how I am defying gravity
I'm flying high, defying gravity
And soon I'll match them in renown
And nobody in all of Oz
No Wizard that there is or was
Is ever gonna bring me down!!

I hope you're happy

Citizens of Oz:
Look at her
She's wicked
Get her!!

Bring me down!

Citizens of Oz:
No one mourns the wicked
So we got to bring her -

Ahhhh!

Citizens of Oz:
