The Impossible Dream – Songbook

I can’t deny you are the one
Who leaves my mind undone
You do the strangest things to me
Just take a look and see

Since the day you’re gone
I can’t be sure what I have done
Should we really be together
Will this carry on forever

can’t seem to make up my mind about you
can’t seem to live here alone without you
So we start
And we stop
But then we start again

I could compare you to the sun
Your love comes shining down
But something I have had to learn
If I come too close I burn

Since the day your gone
I can’t be sure what I have done
Should we really be together
Will this carry on forever

can’t seem to make up my mind about you
can’t seem to live here alone without you
So we start
But we stop
we’re both insane

I can’t seem to make up my mind about you
can’t seem to live here alone without you
So we start
And we stop
But then we start again

I’m gonna ask you for your love
I cannot wait for the break of day
The sun will shine above
And you will be so far away

Though moments come and go
I can see – This is the last with you

This is the chance of a lifetime tonight
Not gonna wait till you’re out of sight
This is dawn of a new day tonight
Now that the time is right

So in the silence of the night
We must face up to our destiny
The stars are shinnig bright
And you are here in the dark with me

Though moments come and go
I can see – This is the last with you

This is the chance of a lifetime tonight
Not gonna wait till you’re out of sight
This is dawn of a new day tonight
Now that the time is right

This is the chance of a lifetime tonight
Not gonna wait till the sky is bright
This is the start of an era tonight
Now that the time is right

Though moments come and go
I can see – This is the last with you

This is the chance of a lifetime tonight
Not gonna wait till you’re out of sight
This is dawn of a new day tonight
Now that the time is right

This is the chance of a lifetime tonight
Not gonna wait till the sky is bright
This is the start of an era tonight
Now that the time is right

Tonight – The chance of a lifetime tonight
Tonight – The start of an era tonight

You know that I would never claim
To be the perfect man
But I could not complain
About the way I am

Just take me as you see me
‘Cos it’s the best I have to offer
And if it doesn’t look like much
It doesn’t really matter

It cannot hurt, To tell the truth
I really don’t mind,’Cos love is blind
To say the truth, Is not unkind
I really don’t mind,’Cos love is blind

You know that I would never try
To be somebody else
And I can’t tell a lie
To you about myself

Just take me as you see me,
‘Cos it’s the best I have to offer
And if it doesn’t look like much,
It doesn’t really matter

It cannot hurt, To tell the truth
I really don’t mind,’Cos love is blind
To say the truth, Is not unkind
I really don’t mind,’Cos love is blind
(Repeat)

Just take me as you see me,
‘Cos it’s the best I have to offer
And if it doesn’t look like much,
It doesn’t really matter

It cannot hurt, To tell the truth
I really don’t mind,’Cos love is blind
To say the truth, Is not unkind
I really don’t mind,’Cos love is blind
(Repeat)

Meet with a stranger
Do what you want to do
You know the danger
Do you enjoy it too?

Here I lie
A million miles away
I believe our love will never die
Anyway

Somewhere in the void of time
Somehow from the very start
Somewhere you were always mine
Deep down in your heart

How hard can hell be?
Living from day to day
Don’t try to tell me
Things I can’t hear you say

Somewhere in the void of time
Somehow from the very start
I knew you were always mine
Deep down in your broken heart

Something like a secret sign
Showed me we would never part
Somewhere you were always mine
Deep down in your heart

It was the time for me and you
When all our wishes would come true

Then like a dream it passed away
So we awoke
Night followed day

I still recall the way that it was before
In our glory days
It makes me want to be there again all the more
In our glory days

It was the best the world can give
It was the only way to live

Since we’ve been groping in the dark
Missing the light
Missing the mark

I still recall the way that it was before
In our glory days
It makes me want to be there again all the more
In our glory days

please understand
If I’m reserved
‘Cos what we’ve got
Is more deserved than not

I know we’ve been together
A long long time
I know I said it was forever
That you’d be mine

We knew there always was a danger
Our love would die
So now we’re living here like strangers
In endless night

Heaven and hell were moved
Trying to make it happen
Hoping that things would be improved
Heaven and hell

No one can ask the reason why
The long goodbye
And no one can say we didn’t try
So Here’s the long goodbye

Let’s try and stay together
At least as friends
You know that in the end forever
Like all things end

Heaven and hell were moved
Trying to make it happen
Hoping that things would be improved
Heaven and hell

No one can ask the reason why
The long goodbye
And no one can say we didn’t try
So Here’s the long goodbye

please Don’t ask the reason why
The long goodbye
‘Cos no one can say we didn’t try
So Here’s the long goodbye

I’m looking at you
But I’ve the feeling you don’t care
I stand before you
I try to whisper in your ear
I try to tell you
But I’ve the feeling you don’t hear

I can’t believe it
I raise my eyes up to the sky
I calculate it
I cannot find the reason why
I think about it
But while we wait the time goes by

So are the warnings all unheard
Are we proud before a fall
Can we hear the spoken word at all?

Try to believe that it’s true
Something is left here for us to redeem
Something That’s long overdue
Try to believe an impossible dream

I look around me
It seems to me we’ve lost our way
The facts surround me
we Don’t have time left anyway
Our lives astound me
But for the past we’ll have to pay

So are the warnings all unheard
Are we proud before a fall
Can we hear the spoken word at all?

Try to believe that it’s true
Something is left here for us to redeem
Something That’s long overdue
Try to believe an impossible dream

You can believe that it’s true
Something is left here for us to redeem
Something that we have to do
You can achieve an impossible dream

The lights are all out, we’re undercover
I can’t do without you, my tactile lover
I can’t resist you, the way you play me
I’m gonna miss you, I need you daily
You’re lips are lovely, they move my senses
You sway above me, I lie defencelessly

I’m in captivity
Living in ecstasy
Do what you want to me
And watch me flying

This is the way to my heart
And it’s a touch of heaven
You can make love to an art
And it’s a touch of heaven

You give me the squezze, I’m under pressure
Your fingers release, a perfect pleasure
You give my body, the strangest feeling
You lay upon me, your hands of healing
You are the goddess, of love eternal
Your tongue is endless, when used internally

I’m in captivity
Living in ecstasy
Do what you want to me
And watch me flying

This is the way to my heart
And it’s a touch of heaven
You can make love to an art
And it’s a touch of heaven

I’m in captivity…

I’m watching you now
The things that you do
And I send my love from above
From heaven to you

You know I was living a lie
That everyone knew
I knew you were living it too
So I said goodbye

I lived the best of my life
The rest of my life
With you
I gave the edge of the knife
The best of my life
For you

Though I must admit I lied
My aim was ever steady and true
I was always yours inside
And when I died – I died for you

I’m calling you now
From miles away
And I hope that somehow you hear
The things that I say

You know I will always remain
your servant And friend
So please don’t despair at the end
‘Cos we’ll meet again

I lived the best of my life
The rest of my life
With you
I gave the edge of the knife
The best of my life
For you

Though I must admit I lied
My aim was ever steady and true
I was always yours inside
And when I died – I died for you

I used to be the fool
For everyone in town
I used to think
What’s not yet up
Most somehow still be down

But now I know
That the real world’s
Not necessarily so

Put your life in my hands
Because we’re going for a ride
And everything appears back to front there
On the other side

Put your hands in mine now
Because I’m gonna be your guide
We only cross a fine line to get there
On the other side

I used to have a gift
Of visionary sight
I used to see
Through coloured glass
But now it’s black and white

And now I know
That the real world’s
Not necessarily so

Put your life in my hands
Because we’re going for a ride
And everthing appears back to front there
On the other side

Put your hands in mine now
Because I’m gonna be your guide
We only cross a fine line to get there
On the other side

Well you came without a sound
And you turned my mind around
You were playing games with me

So I told you from the start
And I meant it from the heart
This is not the way for me

Don’t you see the things you do
Don’t I mean that much to you

Things are not the way they seem
When you’re living in a dream
I am losing my control

I feel left here on the shelf
I can’t recognize myself
You have changed my heart and soul

Don’t you see the things you do
Don’t I mean that much to you

Inside out
It’s all that I can do to scream and to shout
Inside out
you’re the one thing I can’t do without

I am angry and confused
And my mind has been abused
By the things that you have said

I’m not sure what’s good or bad
can’t decide if I am sad
Like I’m standing on my head

Don’t you see the things you do
Don’t I mean that much to you

Inside out
It’s all that I can do to scream and to shout
Inside out
you’re the one thing I can’t do without

Inside out
’til you leave me feeling almost devout
And now I’m inside out
you’re the one thing I can’t do without

Anyone can see
What you’ve done to me
I’ve been spun about
And turned inside not

Now I’ve lost my mind
’til the end of time
I’ve been played about
Now I’m inside out

Surely you can see
What’s become of me
I’ve been spun about
And turned inside out

Now I can’t recall
Who I am at all
I’ve been played about
Now I’m inside out

Silent memories of you
Just couldn’t be better
Everything we used to do
Worked down to the letter

We lived life from day to day
Only you will understand
We lived life a special way
In a wonderland

See you again in the afterlife
Meet me again when the time is right
See you again in the afterlife
I will be waiting for you

When will me two meet again
In what distant place
How will you and I feel when
We are face to face

See you again in the afterlife
Meet me again when the time is right
See you again in the afterlife
I will be waiting for you

Will I see you again
My friend
Will we meet again

Will I see you again
I want to see you again
