"Coming Home" (2014)




I Could Have Danced All Night lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

Bed, bed I couldn't go to bed
My head's too light to try to set it down
Sleep, sleep I couldn't sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown

I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things
I've never done before

I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night

Servants: It's after three now
Don't you agree now?
She ought to be in bed

I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things
I've never done before

I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night

Mrs. Pearce: I understand dear
It's all been grand dear
But now it's time to sleep

I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things
I've never done before

I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night

Maybe This Time lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

Maybe this time,
I'll be lucky
Maybe this time
He'll stay
Maybe this time
For the first time
Love won't hurry away

He will hold me fast
I'll be home at last
Not a loser anymore
Like the last time
And the time before

Everybody loves a winner

So nobody loved me
Lady peaceful, Lady happy
That's what I want to be
All of the odds are
They're in my favor

Something's bound to begin
It's gotta happen
Happen sometime
Maybe this time I'll win
Cuz
Everybody they love a winner
So nobody loved me

Lady peaceful, Lady happy
That's what I want to be
All of the odds are
They're in my favor

Something's bound to begin
It's gotta happen
Happen sometime
Maybe this time I'll win
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!!!

My Coloring Book lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

For those who fancy coloring books
And lots of people do
Here's a new one for you
A most unusual coloring book

The kind you never see
Crayons ready, very well
Begin to color me

These are the eyes that watched him
As he walked away
Color them gray

This is the heart that thought
He would always be true
Color it blue

These are the arms that held him
And touched him then lost him somehow
Color them empty now

These are the beads I wore
Until she came between
Color them green

This is the room I sleep in
Walk in and weep in
Hide in that nobody sees
Color it lonely, please

This is the man
The one I depended upon
Color him gone...

Bring Him Home lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

God on high
Hear my prayer
In my need
You have always been there

He is young
He's afraid
Let him rest
Heaven blessed.
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

He's like the son I might have known
If God had granted me a son.
The summers die
One by one
How soon they fly
On and on
And I am old
And will be gone.

Bring him peace
Bring him joy
He is young
He is only a boy

You can take
You can give
Let him be
Let him live
If I die, let me die
Let him live
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

Hard Times Come Again No More lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears,
While we all sup sorrow with the poor;
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, hard times, come again no more
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay,
There are frail forms fainting at the door;
Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, hard times, come again no more
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

There's a pale drooping maiden who toils her life away,
With a worn heart whose better days are o'er:
Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day,
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, hard times, come again no more
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

'Tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave,
'Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore
'Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, hard times, come again no more
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.

Over The Rainbow lyrics - Kristen Chenoweth

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

Popular lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

[GALINDA - Spoken:]
Elphie, now that we're friends, I've decided to make you my new project!

[ELPHABA - Spoken:]
You really don't have to do that...

[GALINDA - Spoken:]
I know, that's what makes me so nice!

Whenever I see someone less fortunate than I,
And let's face it, who isn't less fortunate than I?
My tender heart tends to start to bleed.
And when someone needs a makeover,
I simply have to take over!
I know, I know exactly what they need!

And even in your case,
Though it's the toughest case I've yet to face,
Don't worry, I'm determined to succeed!
Follow my lead,
And yes indeed, you will be...

POPULAR!
You're gonna be popular!
I'll teach you the proper poise,
When you talk to boys,
Little ways to flirt and flounce,
ooh!
I'll show you what shoes to wear!
How to fix your hair!
Everything that really counts to be...

POPULAR!
I'll help you be popular!
You'll hang with the right cohorts,
You'll be good at sports,
Know the slang you've got to know.
So let's start,
'Cause you've got an awfully long way to go!

Don't be offended by my frank an*lysis,
Think of it as personality dialysis,
Now that I've chosen to become a
Pal, a sister and advisor,
There's nobody wiser!
Not when it comes to...

POPULAR!
I know about popular.
and with an assist from me,
to be who you'll be,
instead of dreary who you were...
Well, are.
There's nothing that can stop you,
from becoming popu-ler... lar...

la la, la la!
We're gonna make you pop-u-lar!

When i see depressing creatures,
With unprepossessing features,
I remind them on their own behalf
To - think - of
Celebrated heads of state,
Or specially great communicators!
Did they have brains or knowledge?
Don't make me laugh!

They were POPULAR!
Please!
It's all about popular.
It's not about aptitude,
It's the way you're viewed,
So it's very shrewd to be,
Very very popular
like ME!

[Spoken:]
Why, Miss Elphaba, look at you. you're beautiful!

[ELPHABA - Spoken:]
I, I have to go...

[GALINDA - Spoken:]
You're welcome...

And though you protest,
Your disinterest,
I know clandestinely,
You're gonna grin and bear it!
Your new found popularity!
Aah!

La la, la la!
You'll be popular!
Just not quite as popular as ME!

For Good lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

I've heard it said,
That people come into our lives,
For a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are lead 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 (still me)
Like a comet pulled from orbit,
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder,
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better,
But because I knew you,
I have been changed for good

It well may be,
That we will never meet again,
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part,
So much of me,
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me,
Like a hand print on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end,
I know you have rewritten mine,
By being my friend
Like a ship blown from it's mooring,
By a wind off the sea
Like a sea dropped by a sky bird,
Half way through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better,
But because I knew you
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good

And just to clear the air,
I ask forgiveness,
For the things I've done,
You blamed me for

But then, I guess
We know there's blame to share

And none of it seems to matter anymore
Like a comet pulled from orbit (Like a ship blown from it's mooring)
As it passes a sun (By a wind off the sea)
Like a stream that meets a boulder (Like a sea dropped by bird,)
Halfway through the wood (In the wood)
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
I do believe I have been changed for the better

And because I knew you
Because I knew you
Because I knew you
I have been changed
For good

"Some Lessons Learned" (2011)




I Was Here lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

You will notice me
I’ll be leaving my mark
Like initials carved in an old oak tree
Just wait and see

Maybe I’ll write like Twain wrote
Maybe I’ll paint like Van Gogh
Cure the common cold, I don’t know
But I’m ready to start cause I know in my heart

I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
I wanna do something better
With the time I was given
I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
Leave nothing less than something that says
I was here

I will prove you wrong
If you think I’m all talk, you’re in for a shock
Cause this dream’s too strong
And before too long

Maybe I’ll compose symphonies
Maybe I’ll fight for world peace
Cause I know it’s my destiny 
To leave more than a trace of myself in this place

I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
I wanna do something better
With the time I was given
I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
Leave nothing less than something that says
I was here

I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
(I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear)

I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
I wanna do something better
With the time I was given
I know that I will do more than just pass through this life
And leave nothing less than something that says
I was here
I was here
I was here

I Want Somebody (Bitch About) lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

Hey, haha yeah you, yeah y'all better listen up now. uh-huh, huh OK.
I want someone I can talk to, all night anytime I want to
Who'll be there when I want and won't be there when I don't want him to be
Who understands it's not easy to understand me
Someone who loves me sometimes bugs me sometimes makes me wanna scream
I need my space someone not in my face, I want somebody

I want somebody I can bitch about
I want somebody I cant live without
I want somebody who can make me insane completely crazy
I want someone who's gonna come and mess me up and make me want him way to much
Sometimes hate me sometimes love me
I want somebody, I want somebody

I want someone I can fight with, and then make up all night with
Someone who makes me mad and makes me laugh and has my back through it all
Someone who loves my flaws and loves me 'cause I'm crazy
When I feel ugly they'll still love me they'll still think I'm beautiful
And when I'm a mess they'll still think I'm the best I want somebody, I want somebody

I want somebody I can bitch about
I want somebody I cant live without
I want somebody who can make me insane completely crazy
I want someone who's gonna come and mess me up and make me want him way to much
Sometimes hate me sometimes love me
I want somebody, I want somebody

Someone who knows when to stay away
Knows how to take my breath away
Knows that no one can love me better
What I need is, what I need is

Somebody I can bitch about
Somebody I cant live without
Want someone who's gonna make me insane completely crazy
I want someone who's gonna come and mess me up and make me want him way to much
Sometimes hate me sometimes love me
I want somebody, I want somebody

I want somebody I can bitch about
I want somebody I cant live without
I want somebody who can make me insane completely crazy
I want somebody I can bitch about
Huh-haa

Fathers And Daughters lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

Well you laughed and told me you really wanted a boy
But you cried first time you held me said you never felt such joy
That's fathers and daughters

When you took the training wheels right off my bike
That's the first time I could feel my wings
'Cause you taught me how to fly
That's fathers and daughters

When I was a pink ballerina dancing in the kitchen
You held out your hand so I could try my luck at spinning
The world kept turning always thru it all
I knew you would catch me
When I start to fall
That's fathers and daughters.

When you let me go out on my first date
You waited up and you didn't tell Mom
Even tho' I got home late
That's fathers and daughters

And one day when that boy made my heart break
You told me that's why God made tears
To wash the hurt away

And I'm still that pink ballerina
Dancing in the kitchen
You hold out your hand
I go right back to the beginning
The world keeps turning always thru it all
You're still there to catch me
I'm still learning how to fall
That's fathers... and daughters
And daughters... and fathers

We grow up and discover
No one ever loves each other
Like fathers and daughters.

What Would Dolly Do? lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

Caught you in the saddle with some Jolene
Looks like she lost a battle with Maybelline
I got an open mind but 3-ways ain’t my scene
I may not be from Tennessee but you know
I got a lot of Dolly in me 
And there’s a Smokey Mountain law that says thou shalt not cheat

So take your truck and shove it
I know how much you love it
And it’s a good thing 
Cause that’s where you’re moving to
I’m gonna pull that wig down off the shelf
Go high heels up with someone else
Cause I ask myself
What would Dolly Do? 
W-W-Double-D, W-W-Double-D, W-W-Double-D

Say where’d you find ole bumper lips
She should could use some beauty tips
And I could fix her up for good with my two fists
You’re lucky I’m still taking meds
Cause I’d burn this house down ‘round your head
I could shoot you too 
But I’ll pray for you instead

So take your truck and shove it
I know how much you love it
And it’s a good thing 
Cause that’s where you’re moving to
I’m gonna pull that wig down off the shelf
Go high heels up with someone else
Cause I ask myself
What would Dolly Do? 
W-W-Double-D, W-W-Double-D, W-W-Double-D

Should I make my hair a little taller?
Should I make my waist a little smaller?
Wanna pick up the phone and call her right now
Right now

Take your truck and shove it
I know how much you love it
And it’s a good thing 
Cause that’s where you’re moving to
I’m gonna pull that wig down off the shelf
Go high heels up with someone else
Cause I ask myself
What would Dolly Do? 

Well I may look just like Barbie 2
But this ain’t my first barbeque
The question is
What would Dolly Do?
W-W-Double-D, W-W-Double-D, W-W-Double-D
W-W-Double, W-W-Double, W-W-Double-D

God And Me lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

If God and me sat down for tea
I would ask him why he made a heart that could break so easily
If God had time would it be a crime
If I said I saw some one tiny flaw in his grand design

I’m sure the one who made the sunsets and the seasons
Had a real good reason for the pain of love
Though I hate to bite the hand of the one who made me
If he gave me one little clue of why I lost you
Maybe I’d be able to move on

If God dropped by for some homemade pie
I could serve dessert and ask why it hurts
When someone says goodbye

I’m sure the one who made the sunsets and the seasons
Had a real good reason for the pain of love
Though I hate to bite the hand of the one who made me
If he gave me one little clue of why I lost you
Maybe I’d be able to move on

If God and me could agree to disagree
Well, I’d admit there’s quite a bit of the picture I don’t see
La la la – la la - la
La la la – la la – la la
Yeah I’d admit there’s quite a bit cause he knows more than me
La la la – la la - la
La la la – la la – la la

Change lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

Someday when I’m over you
And when I think I’m able to
Well, I might try to be your friend again
But your restless heart and rolling eyes
My jealousy, these endless fights
I’ve got to get out of your life
Or I will never mend

I guess I’ll die a bit each day
But I’m always dying anyway
I don’t have the heart to stay
And I can’t take the pain
I know we’ve tried to no avail
Our heaven now has turned to hell
The same old hurt we know so well
But something’s got to change

We both know it’s got to end
The passion’s gone
It’s just pretend
One of us has got to make the move
We might as well just give it up
We’ve lost respect and there’s no trust
And without this there’s no real love
It’s just some sad excuse

I guess I’ll die a bit each day
But I’m always dying anyway
And there’s nothing left but walk away
Ain’t this a crying shame
A change of pace
A change of heart
The change of place
A place to start
And we’ll be better off apart
Our only hope is change
And we never will 
But something has to change

But someday when I’m over you
And when I think I’m able to
Well, I will try to be your friend again
But I don’t want to see your face till then.

What More Do You Want? lyrics - Kristin Chenoweth

I got a bright red Cadillac
(What more do you want)
I got a Gucci bag
(What more do you want)
At every club I'm VIP, how great is that?
(What more do you want)

I got a heart-shaped pool
(What more do you want)
A big screen TV (On CMT)
Don't you think that's all a girl could need (aww no)

I want love, love, love
'Cause all the rest just ain't enough
I want the one who makes my heart complete
Lyin' in the bed right next to me
I wanna feel the earth shakin'
From the noise we are makin'
I'd trade away all my money today
For love, love, love

I got designed clothes
(What more do you want)
A platinum card
(What more do you want)
I fly around the world in a private jet, yeah life is hard
(What more do you want)
Could thinks be any better than they are

Oh yeah, I want love, love, love
'Cause all the rest just ain't enough
I want the one who makes my heart complete
Lyin' in the bed right next to me
I wanna feel the earth shakin'
From the noise we are makin'
I'd trade away all my money today
For love, love, love

Well you might have all the finer things in life
But if you don't have lovin' arms to hold you tight
It ain't right, it ain't right, it ain't right
What you're missin' is

Oh yeah, I want love, love, love
'Cause all the rest just ain't enough
I want the one who makes my heart complete
Lyin' in the bed right next to me
I wanna feel the earth shakin'
From the noise we are makin'
I'd trade away all my money today
For love, love, love
