It had been exactly three years since her and Glinda had last seen each other, and one thing was embedded into Elphaba's mind; Glinda's eyes.
Your eyes
As we said our goodbyes
Those two beautiful blue orbs had never left her thoughts, they followed her everywhere.
Can't get them out of my mind
And I find, I can't hide
From your eyes
Elphaba had been lost in Glinda's eyes ever since that night at the Ozdust Ball. That had been the first time she had truly looked into Glinda's eyes and saw who she really was. To be honest, it surprised her.
The ones that took me by surprise
The night you came into my life
Elphaba looked out her tower window, and the moon, with it's bright and mysterious beauty only reminded her of one thing.
Where there's moonlight
I see your eyes
How could she have just let Glinda slip through her fingers? Glinda had been the first person who had truly cared about her, and the single thing she wanted and needed.
How'd I let you slip away?
When I'm longing so to hold you
She'd give up her life, just to tell Glinda how much she loved her.
Now I'd die for one more day
'Cause there's something I should have told you
Yes there's something I should have told you
She should've told her the last time she looked into her eyes.
When I looked into your eyes
All these miles and all this time had made Elphaba realize how deeply in love with Glinda she was.
Why does distance make us wise?
She heard a night bird sing. She hadn't sang in three years. Glinda had been her song.
You were the song along
She'd go back to Glinda, before the song completely died within her.
And before the song dies
She'd tell her how much she loved her.
I should tell you, I should tell you
I have always loved you
"I love you Glinda" she whispered to herself, and the love she felt for her shone in her own dark brown orbs.
You can see it in my eyes
