GLINDA <br />(spoken) Elphaba - why couldn't you have stayed calm for <br />once, instead of flying off the handle! <br />(sung) I hope you're happy! <br />I hope you're happy now <br />I hope you're happy how you <br />Hurt your cause forever <br />I hope you think you're clever! <br /> <br />ELPHABA <br />I hope you're happy <br />I hope you're happy, too <br />I hope you're proud how you <br />Would grovel in submission <br />To feed your own ambition <br /> <br />BOTH <br />So though I can't imagine how <br />I hope you're happy right now <br /> <br />GLINDA <br />(spoken) Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry: <br />(sung) You can still be with the Wizard <br />What you've worked and waited for <br />You can have all you ever wanted: <br /> <br />ELPHABA <br />(spoken) I know: <br />(sung) But I don't want it - <br />No - I can't want it <br />Anymore: <br /> <br />Something has changed within me <br />Something is not the same <br />I'm through with playing by the rules <br />Of someone else's game <br />Too late for second-guessing <br />Too late to go back to sleep <br />It's time to trust my instincts <br />Close my eyes: and leap! <br /> <br />It's time to try <br />Defying gravity <br />I think I'll try <br />Defying gravity <br />And you can't pull me down! <br /> <br />GLINDA <br />Can't I make you understand? <br />You're having delusions of grandeur: <br /> <br />ELPHABA <br />I'm through accepting limits <br />''cause someone says they're so <br />Some things I cannot change <br />But till I try, I'll never know! <br />Too long I've been afraid of <br />Losing love I guess I've lost <br />Well, if that's love <br />It comes at much too high a cost! <br />I'd sooner buy <br />Defying gravity <br />Kiss me goodbye <br />I'm defying gravity <br />And you can't pull me down: <br />(spoken) Glinda - come with me. Think of what we could <br />do: together. <br /> <br />(sung) Unlimited <br />Together we're unlimited <br />Together we'll be the greatest team <br />There's ever been <br />Glinda - <br />Dreams, the way we planned 'em <br /> <br />GLINDA <br />If we work in tandem: <br /> <br />BOTH <br />There's no fight we cannot win <br />Just you and I <br />Defying gravity <br />With you and I <br />Defying gravity <br /> <br />ELPHABA <br />They'll never bring us down! <br />(spoken) Well? Are you coming? <br /> <br />GLINDA <br />I hope you're happy <br />Now that you're choosing this <br /> <br />ELPHABA <br />(spoken) You too <br />(sung) I hope it brings you bliss <br /> <br />BOTH <br />I really hope you get it <br />And you don't live to regret it <br />I hope you're happy in the end <br />I hope you're happy, my friend: <br /> <br />ELPHABA So if you care to find me <br />Look to the western sky! <br />As someone told me lately: <br />"Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!" <br />And if I'm flying solo <br />At least I'm flying free <br />To those who'd ground me <br />Take a message back from me <br />Tell them how I am <br />Defying gravity <br />I'm flying high <br />Defying gravity <br />And soon I'll match them in renown <br />And nobody in all of Oz <br />No Wizard that there is or was <br />Is ever gonna bring me down! <br /> <br />GLINDA <br />I hope you're happy! <br /> <br />CITIZENS OF OZ <br />Look at her, she's wicked! <br />Get her! <br /> <br />ELPHABA <br />:Bring me down! <br /> <br />CITIZENS OF OZ <br />No one mourns the wicked <br />So we've got to bring her <br /> <br />ELPHABA <br />Ahhh! <br /> <br />CITIZENS OF OZ <br />Down!<br /><br />
