[Verse]
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
And to bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
And to right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
And to try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
[Bridge]
This is my quest, to follow that star
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far
And 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
[Outro]
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 dream the impossible dream
And to reach, trying to reach the unreachable star
