[**feat. Lea Michele, Chris Colfer:]
2
[Glinda:]
3
(spoken) Elphaba - why couldn't you have stayed calm for
4
once, instead of flying off the handle!
5
(sung) I hope you're happy!
6
I hope you're happy now
7
I hope you're happy how you
8
Hurt your cause forever
9
I hope you think you're clever!
10
[Elphaba:]
11
I hope you're happy
12
I hope you're happy, too
13
I hope you're proud how you
14
Would grovel in submission
15
To feed your own ambition
16
[Both:]
17
So though I can't imagine how
18
I hope you're happy right now
19
[Glinda:]
20
(spoken) Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry:
21
(sung) You can still be with the Wizard
22
What you've worked and waited for
23
You can have all you ever wanted:
24
[Elphaba:]
25
(spoken) I know:
26
(sung) But I don't want it -
27
No - I can't want it
28
Anymore:
29
Something has changed within me
30
Something is not the same
31
I'm through with playing by the rules
32
Of someone else's game
33
Too late for second-guessing
34
Too late to go back to sleep
35
It's time to trust my instincts
36
Close my eyes: and leap!
37
It's time to try
38
Defying gravity
39
I think I'll try
40
Defying gravity
41
And you can't pull me down!
42
[Glinda:]
43
Can't I make you understand?
44
You're having delusions of grandeur:
45
[Elphaba:]
46
I'm through accepting limits
47
''cause someone says they're so
48
Some things I cannot change
49
But till I try, I'll never know!
50
Too long I've been afraid of
51
Losing love I guess I've lost
52
Well, if that's love
53
It comes at much too high a cost!
54
I'd sooner buy
55
Defying gravity
56
Kiss me goodbye
57
I'm defying gravity
58
And you can't pull me down:
59
(spoken) Glinda - come with me. Think of what we could
60
do: together.
61
(sung) Unlimited
62
Together we're unlimited
63
Together we'll be the greatest team
64
There's ever been
65
Glinda -
66
Dreams, the way we planned 'em
67
[Glinda:]
68
If we work in tandem:
69
[Both:]
70
There's no fight we cannot win
71
Just you and I
72
Defying gravity
73
With you and I
74
Defying gravity
75
[Elphaba:]
76
They'll never bring us down!
77
(spoken) Well? Are you coming?
78
[Glinda:]
79
I hope you're happy
80
Now that you're choosing this
81
[Elphaba:]
82
(spoken) You too
83
(sung) I hope it brings you bliss
84
[Both:]
85
I really hope you get it
86
And you don't live to regret it
87
I hope you're happy in the end
88
I hope you're happy, my friend:
89
Elphaba So if you care to find me
90
Look to the western sky!
91
As someone told me lately:
92
"Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!"
93
And if I'm flying solo
94
At least I'm flying free
95
To those who'd ground me
96
Take a message back from me
97
Tell them how I am
98
Defying gravity
99
I'm flying high
100
Defying gravity
101
And soon I'll match them in renown
102
And nobody in all of Oz
103
No Wizard that there is or was
104
Is ever gonna bring me down!
105
[Glinda:]
106
I hope you're happy!
107
[Citizens Of Oz:]
108
Look at her, she's wicked!
109
Get her!
110
[Elphaba:]
111
:Bring me down!
112
[Citizens Of Oz:]
113
No one mourns the wicked
114
So we've got to bring her
115
[Elphaba:]
116
Ahhh!
117
[Citizens Of Oz:]
118
Down!
