Well the roller-coaster ride continues. Today... well... another chapter comes to a complete end. Sad days, but we'll not mourn our losses. We'll celebrate what has been, for this is the best way to remember those who are no longer with us.
This one was one of those that used to get started once my grandfather got drinking. In true Scot's style a little bit of alcohol and the singing started. Gotta love it... mostly because none of it made any sense. Here's to Andy Williams and "The Impossible Dream".
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 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 be willing to give
When there's no more to give
To be willing to die
So that honor and justice may live
And 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
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 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 be willing to give
When there's no more to give
To be willing to die
So that honor and justice may live
And 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
There are lots of stars... I'll keep following that star - someone has to.
