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 a 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!
