A/N: Slight lyric change to fit the plot.

Elphaba slammed her fists on the desk before her. Frustration filled her. 'Why is this happening to me? Why?' This question was racing around her head. She turned her head to stare out the window near her desk.

There had been one person haunting her thoughts and her dreams. No matter how hard she tried to escape, the blonde woman from her thoughts always found her and tortured her. The green woman let out a frustrated sigh and put her head in hands.

She got up from the chair she was sitting in and went out to the balcony. She looked up at the moon and memories that once filled her with happiness weighted her heart down. 'How did we end up like this?'

She began to sing softly.

"Oh, when you were young, did you ever love someone? So much you couldn't bare the thought of losing them? Well I remember the sleepless nights when I'd lie awake. If only I could tell you how I feel..."

She turned around and headed out of her study and toward the hallway.

"Sleepless at night... Well I remember the sleepless nights. Sleepless at night..."

As she walked down the hallway, she looked into her bedroom at the bed. 'How I long for her to be here with me...' Swallowing a lump in her throat, she continued on. How she wished that the woman from her thoughts could hear her song and come to her... But that would be too dangerous for both of them.

"Well I would walk around all of Oz to have another chance with you. Spend the evening, paining thoughts of all you do. Well I remember the sleepless nights when I'd lie awake.
If only I could tell you how I feel..."

She made her way down the staircase and headed towards the double doors. The giant door opened with a loud creak. Elphaba made her way outside and roamed around.

"Sleepless at night... Well I remember the sleepless nights. Sleepless at night... Sleepless at night, have you ever loved someone? Hard to find, have you ever loved someone? Could you ever love someone?"

She walked around aimlessly, kicking stones as she went along. She had a sudden urge to stare up at the night sky. She stared at the moon and stars, regarding them as she continued to sing.

"Well I remember the sleepless nights when I'd lie awake... Fix me I'm on my own.
Well I remember the sleepless nights when I'd lie awake... Fix me I'm on my own.
Well I remember the sleepless nights when I'd lie awake... Fix me I'm on my own.
Well I remember the sleepless nights when I'd lie awake...
If only I could tell you how I feel."

Silently she prayed that her Glinda was listening to this, somehow someway. A single tear rolled down her cheek as she thought about all the good times that they had. And all the good times that they might never share...
