Glinda: 

Elphaba - why couldn't you have stayed calm for
once, 

instead of flying off the handle! 



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: 

Elphie, listen to me - just say you're sorry...




You can still be with the wizard 

What you've worked and waited for 

You can have all you 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 and leap 



It's time to try 

Defying gravity 

I think I'll try 

Defying gravity 

And you can't pull me down... 



Glinda: 

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 have 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... 



Elphaba: Glinda, come with me. Think of what we
could do - together. 



I'm Limited 

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... 

Well? Are you coming? 



Glinda: 

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 you 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 - 

Ev'ryone 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 gonna bring me down! 



Glinda: 

I hope you're happy! 



Citizens of Oz: 

Look at her, shes wicked! 

Get her! 



Elphaba: 

...bring me down! 



Citizens of Oz: 

No one mourns the wicked 

So we've got to bring her... 



Elphaba: 

Ahhhh! 



Citizens of Oz: 

Down!
