[ELPHABA:]   I'm limited.   Just look at me.   I'm limited.   And just look at you.   You can do all I never could.   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 lead 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 maybe,   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'll have rewritten mine,   By being my friend.   Like a ship blown from it's mooring,   By a wind off the sea.   Like a sea dropped by a sky bird,   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 blamed me for.      [GLINDA:]   But then,   I guess,   We know there's blame to share.      [BOTH:]   And none of it seems to matter,   Anymore.   Like a comet pulled from orbit   (Like a ship blown from it's mooring,)   As it passes a sun.   (By a wind off the sea.)   Like a stream that meets a boulder,   (Like a sea dropped by bird,)   Halfway through the wood.   (In the wood.)   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.
