Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
It's time to try defying gravity
I think I'll try defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
And you won't bring me down
[Verse 3]
I'm through accepting limits 'cause 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
[Verse 4]
I'd sooner buy defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try defying gravity
And you won't bring me down
[Verse 5]
Unlimited
My future is
Unlimited
And I've just had a vision, almost like a prophecy
I know it sounds truly crazy
And, true, the vision's hazy
But, I swear, someday I'll be
[Verse 6]
Flying so high (I'm defying gravity)
Kiss me goodbye (I'm defying gravity)
[Verse 7]
So, if you care to find me, look to the western sky
As someone told me lately everyone deserves the chance to fly
I'm defying gravity and you won't bring me down
Bring me down
Bring me down
Ah
