The Impossible Dream

To Dream That Impossible Dream

It is nice to dream the impossible
To reach out and touch the stars
To win that big lottery
And own your favorite bar
To be rich and famous
And own that fancy car
To be married to a super attractive spouse
Who accedes to your every whim
And together you own a fabulous house

Somewhere in that distant dream
You hear your alarm clock begin to scream
As you come to and open you your eyes
And reality begins to set in
You realize that it is impossible to live
The impossible dream
