Ronan Tynan 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
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

Now 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 star

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 star
