Luther Vandross The Impossible Dream song 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 to 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 that 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 lay to my rest

and the world will be better for this

that one man scorned and covered with scars

still strong with his last ounce of courage

to reach the unreachable star

(repeat)
