Song by Kristin Chenoweth<br />

ELPHABA

I'm limited, just look at me I'm limited and look at you you can do all I couldn't do Glinda now it's up to you (spoken):

for both of us (sung): now it's up to you

GLINDA

I've heard it said

that people come into our lives for a reason

bringing something we must learn

and we are led to those who help us most to grow

if we let them and we help them in return

now I don't know if I believe that that is true

but I know I'm who I am today because I knew you...

like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes the sun,

like a stream that meets a boulder halfway through the wood...

who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you I have been changed for good

ELPHABA

It well may be that we will never meet again in this lifetime

so let me say before we part: so much of me is what I have

learned from you

you'll be with me, like a handprint on my heart

and now whatever way our stories may end

I know you have rewritten mine by being my friend...

Like a ship blown from it's mooring by a wind off the sea like a seed dropped by a skybird in a distant wood

who can say if I've been changed for the better?

But because I knew you... I have been changed for good

ELPHABA

And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness for the things I've done you blame me for.

GLINDA

But then I guess that there is blame to share...

BOTH

And none of it seems to matter anymore

GLINDA (same time as Elphaba)

Like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes the sun, like a stream that meets a boulder halfway through the wood

ELPHABA (same time as Glinda)

Like a ship blown off it's mooring by a wind off the sea, like a seed dropped by a skybird in the distant wood

BOTH

Who's to say if I've been changed for the better?

GLINDA

because I knew you,

ELPHABA

because I knew you

BOTH

because I knew you

I have been changed for good
