Lyrics[]

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
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you can't bring me down

I'm through accepting limits
'Cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But 'til 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
I'm way up high
I'm defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you can't bring me down

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 can see it, I can feel it
I swear, I'll be so high

So if you care to find me
Look to the western sky
As someone told me lately,
"Everyone 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

It's time to try defying gravity
I'm way up high
I'm defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you can't bring me down
