LYRICS: It's impossible Tell the sun to leave the sky It's just impossible It's impossible

Can the ocean Keep from rushing to the shore It's just impossible If I hold you Could I ever want for more It's just impossible
And tomorrow Should you ask me for the world Somehow I'd get it I would sell my very soulAnd not regret it For to live without your love Is just impossible
It's impossible It's impossible It's impossible
