Take Bill Gates out to lunch

Fly out to Las Vegas

Bet it all on just a hunch

Leave my footprint on the moon

? just for two

Take a yacht to the South Seas

Drop in a penny if I please



All of these things I wanna do 

I'd give them all up to be with you

But I might as well swim the artic sea

Then get you to notice me



Why do I try to be part of her world?

Why do I think I can get this girl?

Everybody has to have some kind of thing

An impossible dream

An impossible



Just give me a little time

We won't have to compromise

You may not get diamond rings

But I'll give you riches in different things

The Eiffel tower beneath the stars

The pyramids they would be ours

The Seven Wonders of the World

Would fail to compare if you were my girl



All of these things they would come true

If somehow I could end up with you

But every time I start to get the nerve

I am at a loss for words



Why do I try to be part of her world?

Why do I think I can get this girl?

Everybody's got to have some kind of thing

An impossible dream

An impossible



If I had just one day with you

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

I'd say I love you backwards

If you asked me to

Then you would see that all along

That I was meant to be the one



Why do I try to be part of her world?

Why do I think I can get this girl?

Everybody's got to have some kind of thing

An impossible dream

An impossible



Why (wanna make a billion dollars, take Bill Gates out to lunch)

Why (leave my footprint on the moon, bet it all on just a hunch)

Everybody's got to have some kind of thing

An impossible dream

An impossible dream
