Lyrics
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbarable sorrow
To run (run away) where the brave dare not go
To right (to right) the unrightable wrong
To love (to love) here and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are to weary
To reach the unreachable star (that star above)
This is my quest (this is my quest)
To follow that star (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 only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest (peace and quietness you're sure to find)
And the world
Will be better for this
That one man scorned and covered with scars
Still strolls with his last ounce of courage
To reach oh to reach
To reach the unreachable star
Writer(s): Mitch Leigh, Joseph Darion
