"Defying Gravity" Written by Stephen Schwartz 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 Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity And you won't bring me down 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 I'm way up high, I'm defying gravity Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity And you won't bring me down Unlimited My future is unlimited And I just had a vision Almost like a prophecy I know It sounds truly crazy And, true, the vision's hazy But I can see it I can feel it I swear I'll be so high yeah yeah So if you care to find me Look to the western sky As someone told me lately Everyone deserves a 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 ah yeah It's time to try defying gravity I'm way up high, I'm defying gravity Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity And you won't bring me You won't bring me down | Kerry Ellis version with Brian May: Idina Menzel version (Live): |
