Defying Gravity

Karliene

Compositor: Stephen Lawrence Schwartz

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
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
And you won't bring me down

I'm through accepting limits
'Cause 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
I think I'll try defying gravity
And you won't bring me down

Unlimited
Together, we're unlimited
Together we'll be the greatest team there's ever been
Glinda, dreams the way we planned 'em
If we work in tandem

There's no fight we cannot win
Just you and I, defying gravity
With you and I defying gravity
They'll never bring us down!

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 grounded me
Take a message back from me

Tell them how I am
Defying gravity!
I'm flying high
Defying gravity

And nobody in all of Oz
No Wizard that there is or was
Is ever gonna bring me down!
