Glinda and Elphaba hold hands in a painterly night scene with a moon, glowing handprints, and a bare tree.

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. ELPHABA: It well may be That we will never meet again in this lifetime. 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 rewritten mine by being my friend. 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. Glinda & Elphaba: And none of it seems to matter anymore. 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. See more
