For Good

Many have left a hand print on my heart...This song fits in so many ways for me & really is just kind of how I have been feeling lately... (Elphaba): Im limited Just look at me - Im 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 (Both): 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 (Both): And none of it seems to matter anymore (Glinda): Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood (Elphaba): Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood (Both): 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... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQJaZO2nfGg
