The Impossible Dream

To dream … the impossible dream …
To fight … the unbeatable foe …
To bear … with unbearable sorrow …
and to run … where the brave dare not go …
To right … the unrightable wrong …
and to love … pure and chaste from afar …
To try … when your arms are too weary …
and 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 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 …

To try … when your arms are too weary …
and to reach … the unreachable star …
