Description

GLINDA
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
'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 try
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you can't pull me down:
Glinda - come with me. Think of what we could do: together.
Unlimited
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!

The second part of a massive two part commission for :icontehchalupa:, who for the second part just basically told me to go listen to some music, and draw what I got from the music. So, I've been on a Wicked high since I saw it in London's West End about 2 weeks ago, so I pulled up the soundtrack, and this was born!

Yes, I know this is a long artists comment, but you need to know the lyrics that inspired this picture!! They're so good and wonderful!!


Wicked belongs to Stephen Schwartz, Winnie Holzman and Gregory Maguire
Art belongs to me! No stealing! (But do you like my new pony style?!)

Drawn in :iconfirealpaca: and special effects done in :icongimpplz:
