Frank Sinatra - The Impossible Dream Lyrics
(J. Darion, M. Leigh)[Recorded November 18, 1966, Hollywood]To dream the impossible dreamTo fight the unbeatable foeTo bear with unbearable sorrowTo run where the brave dare not goTo right the unrightable wrong(1)To be better far than you are(1)To try when your arms are too wearyTo reach the unreachable starThis is my quest, to follow that starNo matter how hopeless, no matter how far(2)To be willing to give when there's no more to give (2)(3)To be willing to die so that honor and justice may live (3)And I know if I'll only be true to this glorious questThat my heart will lie peaceful and calm when I'm laid to my restAnd the world will be better for thisThat one man, scorned and covered with scars,Still strove with his last ounce of courageTo reach the unreachable star[Notes:]The Broadway cast's version is quite similar with a few exceptions:(1)To love pure and chaste from afar(2)To fight for the right without question or pause(3)To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause
