Johnny Mathis - The Impossible Dream Lyrics






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
The 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 would 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

    Damn, he was cute and handsome, also with that voice.

  8. d.... f....

    how can he sing such beautiful romantic music AND BE GAY!

    d.... f....

    could it be that gay folks love too? a new concept I know. I loved him dearly many years ago unaware he was gay. learned how to sing from him~~took me all these years to understand that gay folks love as deeply~~it's just us, the straight people who suffer from old concepts. excruciatingly handsome. saw him 3 times live~~still love him today.
