Defying Gravity

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!

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

And you can't pull me down!

Unlimited

My future is unlimited

And I've just had a vision almost like a prophecy

I know it sounds truly crazy

And true, the vision's hazy

But I swear someday I'll be

I'll be the sky defying gravity

Flying so high

Defying gravity

You'll never pull me 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 ground me

Take the message back from me!

Tell them how

I'm defying gravity

Flying so 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 never gonna bring me down!
