The Impossible Dream - Lena Martell

- matt monro
to dream the impossible dream
to fight the unbeatable foe
to bear with unbearable sorrow
to run where the brave dare not go.
to right the unrightable wrong
to love pure and chaste from afar
to try when your arms are too weary
to reach the unreachable star
this is my quest, to follow that star,
no matter how hopeless,
no matter how far
to fight for the right
without question or pause
to be willing to march
into hell for heavenly cause
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
