I was alone so long

I didn't even know that I was lonely

Out in the cold so long

I didn't even know that I was cold

Turned my collar to the wind

This is how it's always been

All I've ever known is how to hold my own

All I've ever known is how to hold my own

But now I wanna hold you, too

You take me in your arms

And suddenly there's sunlight all around me

Everything bright and warm

And shining like it never did before

And for a moment I forget

Just how dark and cold it gets

All I've ever known is how to hold my own

All I've ever known is how to hold my own

But now I wanna hold you

Now I wanna hold you

Hold you close

I don't ever wanna have to let you go

Now I wanna hold you, hold you tight

I don't wanna go back to the lonely life

I don't know how or why

Or who am I that I should get to hold you?

But when I saw you all alone against

The skies like I'd known you all along

I knew you before we met

And I don't even know you yet

All I know is your someone I have always known

All I know is you're someone I have always known

And I don't even know you

Now I wanna hold you

Hold you close

I don't ever wanna have to let you go

Suddenly the sunlight

Bright and warm

Suddenly I'm holding the world in my arms

Say that you'll hold me forever

Say that the wind won't change on us

Say that we'll stay with each other

And it will always be like this

I'm gonna hold you forever

The wind will never change on us

Long as we stay with each other

Then it will always be like this

Music & Lyrics by Anais Mitchell

CALAMITY:

In the Summer you're the Winter

In the finger you're the splinter

In the banquet you're the stew

Say, I could do without you

WILD BILL:

In the garden you're the gopher

In the Levi's you're the loafer

Like an overturned canoe

Well, I can do without you

CALAMITY:

You can go to Philadelphia

Take a hack to Hackensack

Hey, I'll never ring a bell fer yer

Or yell fer yer to come back

WILD BILL:

In the question you're the why

In the ointment you're the fly

CALAMITY:

Though I know some things are indispensible

Like a buck or two

If there's one thing I can do without

I can do without you

WILD BILL:

In the barrel you're a pickle

In the goldmine you're a nickel

You're the tack inside my shoe

Yes, I can do without you

CALAMITY:

In my bosom you're a dagger

You're a mangy carpetbagger

In the theatre you're the 'boo'

I can do without you

WILD BILL:

You got charms, they ain't bewitchin' me

You've a face no one would paint

CALAMITY:

I got the darndest itch in me

To be wherever you ain't

WILD BILL:

In the bullfrog you're the croak

CALAMITY:

In the forest, poison oak

WILD BILL:

Though I know somethings are necessary

My half-pint buckaroo

If there's one thing I can do without I can do without.....

CALAMITY: You're a knothead!

WILD BILL: You're a faker!

CALAMITY: You're a bonehead!

WILD BILL: Troublemaker!

BOTH: I can do without you!

Lyrics by Paul Francis Webster

[GLINDA, spoken]

Elphaba, why couldn't you have stayed calm for once?

Instead of flying off the handle!

I hope you're happy

[sung]

I hope you're happy now

I hope you're happy how you've hurt your cause forever

I hope you think you're clever

[ELPHABA, spoken]

I hope you're happy

[sung]

I hope you're happy, too

I hope you're proud how you

Would grovel in submission, to feed your own ambition

[GLINDA & ELPHABA]

So though I can't imagine how

I hope you're happy right now

[GLINDA, spoken]

Elphie, listen to me, just say you're sorry!

[sung]

You can still be with the wizard

What you've worked and waited for

You can have all you ever wanted

[ELPHABA, spoken]

I know

[sung]

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 'til 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

And you can't pull me down

[spoken]

Glinda, come with me. Think of what we could do, together!

[sung]

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

[GLINDA & ELPHABA]

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!

[spoken]

Well, are you coming?

GLINDA, sung]

I hope you're happy

Now that you're choosing this

[ELPHABA]

[spoken]

You, too

[sung]

I hope it brings you bliss

[GLINDA & ELPHABA]

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

"Everyone deserves the chance to fly!"

And if I'm flying solo

At least I'm flying free

To those who 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!

[GLINDA]

I hope you're happy

[CITIZENS OF OZ]

Look at her! She's wicked!

Get her!

[ELPHABA]

Bring me down!

[CITIZENS OF OZ]

No one mourns the wicked!

So we've got to bring her...

[ELPHABA]

Oh!

[CITIZENS OF OZ]

...down!
