For+Good

This is for some...erm...'friends' who didnt trust me, believe me, or were ...well idk....kinda but not friends, but....

ELPHABA I'm limited: (Spoken)Just look at me – I'm limited And just look at you - You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda So now it's up to you (spoken) For both of us (sung) Now it's up to you:

GLINDA I've heard it said That people come into our lives for a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led To those who help us most to grow If we let them And we help them in return Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you:

Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you I have been changed for good

ELPHABA It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart And now whatever way our stories end I know you have re-written mine By being my friend: Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you:

GLINDA Because I knew you:

BOTH I have been changed for good

ELPHABA And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done you blame me for

GLINDA But then, I guess we know There's blame to share

BOTH And none of it seems to matter anymore

GLINDA (overlapping Elphaba) Like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes the sun. Like a stream the meets a boulder halfway through the wood.

ELPHABA (overlapping Glinda) Like a ship blown from its mooring by a wind off the sea. Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood.

BOTH Who can say if I've been changed for the better? I do believe I have been changed for the better?

GLINDA And because I knew you:

ELPHABA Because I knew you:

BOTH Because I knew you: I have been changed for good
