The Impossible Lyrics

Once more from the top my love's overheating

I can't cool it off I can't make it stop

Best lock me up before I kill again

Born out of boredom nurtured in lust

Starved for affection a stranger to trust

But all the best novels traffic in sin

You ask me to love you but not too much

Making me look but you won't let me touch

And all that you want me to do is the impossible

The impossible

Once more with feeling you set the tone

I set the table and still eat alone

All my fine cooking just gone to waste

Trying to meet your outrageous demands

Trifling objections I can't understand

Question my judgement don't question my taste

If I were a building then you would condemn me

Acting your age is your way of pretending

All that you want me to do is the impossible

The impossible

I'm scared to ask you what you're getting from me

You just might say it's not enough

Can't decide if I should try to salvage my last scrap of my manly dignity

But knowing you you'd call my bluff

So I'm giving up

Taking advantage of my good humor

Waiting for love that is more than a rumor

And all that you want me to do is the impossible

The impossible

The impossible

The impossible
