The Impossible Dream (The Quest)

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 stars 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 stars
