Life is very short and there's no time, for fussing and fighting
my friend. I have always thought that it's a crime, so I will ask
you once again: try to see it my way, only time will tell if I am
right or I am wrong. While you see it your way, there's a chance
that we might fall apart before too long. We can work it out.

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 un-rightable wrong
To be better far than you are
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 pauseTo 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 be 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 courageTo reach the unreachable star
