New Songs in Wicked: For Good Lyrics Revealed
embraces the reality of her complicity in the oppression of Elphaba and others.
[GLINDA]There’s a girl in the worldAnd she’s boldly defyingThe mantle bestowed upon herBut I am to blameWith misplaced ambitionBeing set in this one frameThat I will die in
There’s a girl in the worldAnd she’s brave and she’s daringAnd refuses to be dauntedBut I am to blameFor thinking I could shape herIn my image of her
Yet I can’t reach through this thin airAnd save her from me and youI see the hands of the manyGuided by the few
Yet Glinda, what have you done?By all you failed to do
Though you’ve learned everything from meYou never knew what to do
Now that she’s doomed, take noteWhat’s all this work worth if you won’t then vote
One day these songs will be sungI’ve sung all my life
One day these hands will wave goodbyeEach day I tried
One day she’ll know I could cry
And though I was wise
Did I even try?
