For Good

I love Wicked the musical, (I mean who doesn't right... ;p), and more than the musical, I love the songs. So so much... <3 And this was one of them, not only because it was so relatable, but also when I first heard it I kinda teared up, simply cuz it reminded me of all the people in my life who have impacted me in one way or another. Honestly these are the people who make me who I am, and I am who I am, because I knew them...

(Elphaba):
I'm limited
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
For both of us
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

(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

(Both):
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better

Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good...
