The Impossible

My dad chased monsters from the dark He checked underneath my bed And he could lift me with one arm Way up over top his head He could loosen rusty bolts With a quick turn of his wrench He pulled splinters from his hand And never even flinched In 13 years, I'd never seen him cry But the day that Grandpa died, I realized Unsinkable ships - sink Unbreakable walls - break Sometimes the things you think will never happen Happen just like that Unbendable steel - bends If the fury of the wind is unstoppable I've learned to never underestimate The impossible Then there was my junior year Billy had a brand new car It was late, the road was wet I guess the curve was just too sharp I walked away without a scratch They brought the helicopter in And Billy couldn't feel his legs They said he'd never walk again But Billy said he would And his mom and daddy prayed And the day we graduated He stood up to say Unsinkable ships - sink Unbreakable walls - break Sometimes the things you think will never happen Happen just like that Unbendable steel - bends If the fury of the wind is unstoppable I've learned to never underestimate The impossible So don't tell me that it's over Don't give up on you and me 'Cause there's no such thing as hopeless If you believe Unsinkable ships - sink Unbreakable walls - break Sometimes the things you think would never happen Happen just like that Unbendable steel - bends If the fury of the wind is unstoppable I've learned to never underestimate The impossible
