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

GLINDA
Because I knew you

ELPHABA & GLINDA
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

ELPHABA & GLINDA
And none of it seems to matter anymore

GLINDA
Like a comet pulled from orbit

ELPHABA
Like a ship blown from its mooring

GLINDA
As it passes a sun

ELPHABA
By a wind off the sea

GLINDA
Like a stream that meets a boulder

ELPHABA
Like a seed dropped by a bird

GLINDA
Halfway through the wood

ELPHABA
In the wood

ELPHABA & GLINDA
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

ELPHABA & GLINDA
Because I knew you, I have been changed for good
