Idina Menzel - "Defying Gravity" - WICKED (Late Show with David Letterman)

  • 0:47 - 0:51
    Something has changed within me
  • 0:51 - 0:54
    Something is not the same
  • 0:54 - 0:58
    I'm through with playing by
  • 0:58 - 1:02
    The rules of someone else's game
  • 1:02 - 1:06
    Too late for second guessing
  • 1:06 - 1:10
    Too late to go back to sleep
  • 1:10 - 1:13
    It's time to trust my instincts
  • 1:13 - 1:20
    Close my eyes, and leap
  • 1:20 - 1:25
    It's time to try defying gravity
  • 1:25 - 1:31
    I think I'll try defying gravity
  • 1:31 - 1:33
    And you can't pull me down
  • 1:33 - 1:36
    I'm through accepting limits
  • 1:36 - 1:38
    'Cause someone says they're so
  • 1:38 - 1:41
    Some things I cannot change
  • 1:41 - 1:45
    But 'til I try, I'll never know
  • 1:45 - 1:47
    Too long I've been afraid of
  • 1:47 - 1:51
    Losing love I guess I've lost
  • 1:51 - 1:52
    Well, if that's love
  • 1:52 - 1:56
    It comes at much too high a cost
  • 1:56 - 2:02
    I'd sooner buy defying gravity
  • 2:02 -
    Kiss me goodbye,
    I'm defying gravity
  • Not Synced
    I think I'll try defying gravity
  • Not Synced
    And you can't pull me down
  • Not Synced
    Unlimited
  • Not Synced
    Our future is unlimited
  • Not Synced
    And I've just had a vision
    almost like a prophecy
  • Not Synced
    I know it sounds truly crazy
  • Not Synced
    And true, the vision's hazy
  • Not Synced
    But I swear
  • Not Synced
    Someday
    I'll be flying so high
  • Not Synced
    Kiss me goodbye
  • Not Synced
    So if you care to find me
  • Not Synced
    Look to the western sky
  • Not Synced
    As someone told me lately
  • Not Synced
    Everyone deserves
    the chance to fly
  • Not Synced
    And if I'm flying solo
  • Not Synced
    At least I'm flying free
  • Not Synced
    To those who ground me
  • Not Synced
    Take a message back from me
  • Not Synced
    Tell them how
    I am defying gravity
  • Not Synced
    I'm flying high, defying gravity
  • Not Synced
    And soon I'll match them in renown
  • Not Synced
    And nobody in all of Oz
  • Not Synced
    No Wizard that there is or was
  • Not Synced
    Is ever gonna bring me
  • Not Synced
    Down
  • Not Synced
    Ahh!
