[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
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
Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But
Because I knew you
[GLINDA]
Because I knew you
[GLINDA & ELPHABA]
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
[GLINDA & ELPHABA]
And none of it seems to matter anymore
[GLINDA & ELPHABA]
Like a comet pulled from orbit (Like a ship blown from its mooring)
As it passes a sun (By a wind off the sea)
Like a stream that meets a boulder (Like a seed dropped by a bird)
Halfway through the wood (In the wood)
[GLINDA & ELPHABA]
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
[GLINDA & ELPHABA]
Because I knew you
I have been changed
For good
