Wicked For Good
Elphy:
Unlimited...
Just look at me
I'm limited
And just look at you
You can do all I couldn't do,
Glinda
Now it's up to you
For both of us.
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 lent to those
Who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you.
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun.
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good.
Elphy:
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 made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have rewritten mine
By being my friend.
Like a ship blown from its 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
Because I knew you
Glinda:
Because I knew you
Together:
I have been changed for good.
Elphy:
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness for the things I've done you blame me for.
Glinda:
But then, I guess,
We know there's blame to share
Together:
And none of it seems to matter anymore
(Together)
Glinda:
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Elphy:
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird in a distant wood
Together:
Who can say
If I've been changed for the better
I do believe I have been changed for the better
Glinda:
Because I knew you...
Elphy:
Because I knew you...
Together:
Because I knew you,
I have been changed
For good.
