Defying Gravity Music by Winnie Holzman Lyrics by
Stephen Schwartz Vocals by Leslie Henstock
11
Something has changed within me, Something is not
the same. Im through with playing by the rules
of someone elses game. Too late for
second-guessing, too late to go back to
sleep. Its time to trust my instincts, close my
eyes, and leap.
12
Its time to try defying gravity. I think Ill
try defying gravity, and you cant pull me down.
13
Im through accepting limits cuz someone says
theyre so. Some things I cannot change, but til
I try Ill never know. Too long Ive been afraid
of losing love I guess Ive lost. Well if thats
love, it comes at much too high a cost.
14
Id sooner buy defying gravity. Kiss me
goodbye, Im defying gravity, and you cant pull
me down!
15
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 Im flying solo, at
least Im flying free. To those whod ground
me, take a message back from me...
16
Tell them how I am defying gravity. Im flying
high, defying gravity. And soon Ill match them
in renown. And nobody in all of Oz, no Wizard
that there is or was, Is ever gonna bring me down!
