The Impossible Dream

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run with a bridge and a goal

To right the unrightable wrong
To be better far than you are
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

Oh in our quest we follow that star
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far
To fight for the right, without question or qualms
To be willing to march into heaven whatever it costs
And I know if I’ll only be true to this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm when I’m laid to my rest

And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star

And the world will be better for this
Oh, that one man, scorned and covered with scars
He still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star
