GLINDA (Spoken) Elphie, couldn't you have stayed calm for once instead of flying off the handle! (Sung) I hope you're happy I hope you're happy now I hope you're happy how You hurt your cause forever I hope you think you're clever
ELPHABA I hope you're happy I hope you're happy too I hope you're proud how you Would grovel in submission To feed your own ambition
BOTH So though I can't imagine how I hope you're happy right now
GLINDA (Spoken) Elphie, lisen to me, just say you're sorry
(Sung) You can still be with the wizard What you've worked and waited for You can have all you've ever wanted
ELPHABA I know But I don't want it No I can't want it anymore
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 an leap
It's time to try Defying gravity I think I'll try Defying gravity And you can't pull me down
GALINDA Can't I make you understand? You're Having delusions of grandeur
ELPHABA I'm through accepting limits Cuz someone says they're so Some things I cannot change But till I try I'll never know Too long I've been afraid of losing Love I guess I've lost Well if that's love it comes at Much too high a cost
I'd sooner buy Defying gravity Kiss me goodbye I'm defying gravity And you can't pull me down
(Spoken) Glinda, come with me Think of what we could do together
(Sung) Unlimited Together we're unlimited Together we'll be the greatest team there's ever been Glinda Dreams the way we planned 'em
GLINDA If we work in tandem
BOTH There's no fight we cannot win Just you and I Defying gravity With you and I Defying gravity
ELPHABA They'll never bring us down!
(Spoken) Well? Are you coming?
GLINDA (Sung) I hope you're happy Now that you're choosing this
ELPHABA You too I hope it brings you bliss
BOTH I really hope you get it And don't live to regret it I hope you're happy in the end I hope you're happy my friend
ELPHABA 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'd 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 gonaa bring me down!
GLINDA I hope you're happy!
CITIZENS Look at her, she's wicked! Get her!
ELPHABA Bring me down!
CITIZENS No one mourns the wicked So we've got to bring her
