To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow And to run where the brave dare not goTo right the unrightable wrong And to love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable starThis is my quest To follow that star No matter how hopeless No matter how farTo fight for the right Without question or pause To be willing to march, march into Hell For that Heavenly causeAnd 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 restAnd the world will be better for this That one man, scorned and covered with scars Still strove with his last ounce of courageTo reach the unreachable star

The Impossible Dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where the brave dare not goTo right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable starThis is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how farTo fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march, march into Hell
For that Heavenly causeAnd 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 restAnd the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courageTo reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how farTo fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march, march into Hell
For that Heavenly causeAnd 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 restAnd the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courageTo reach the unreachable star
