Music Monday - defying gravity!


This is one of my favorite Broadway Songs! So I am dedicating this to all of the kids going back to school - mine are all going to new schools! I know it is scary and you have to make new friends and get familiar with your surroundings! Just remember who you are (a child of God), play by the rules of your own game and be strong - you can do and be anything that you set your mind too! I love you and love watching you learn and grow! Defy Gravity and FLY! (
As always... click below and give it a listen!!)


Something has changed within me Something is not the same

I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game

Too late for second-guessing too late to go back to sleep

It's time to trust my instincts close my eyes: and leap!

It's time to try defying gravity I think I'll try defying gravity

And you can't pull me down!

(GLINDA) Can't I make you understand?You're having delusions of grandeur:

(ELPHABA) I'm through accepting limits' Cuz someone says they're so

Some things I cannot change but till I try, I'll never know!

Too long I've been afraid of losing love I guess I've lost

Well, if that's love it comes at much too high a cost!

I'd sooner buy defying gravity Kiss me goodbye I'm defying gravity

And you can't pull me down

So if you care to find me Look to the western sky!

As someone told me lately:"Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!"

And if I'm flying solo at least I'm flying free

To those who'd ground me take a message back from me

Tell them how I am Defying gravity I'm flying high Defying gravity

And soon I'll match them in renown

And nobody in all of Oz No Wizard that there is or was

Is ever gonna bring me down!
