In the cool darkness of morning, just before awaking. The intertwined tentacles of dreams slowly slipped away. Leaving behind memories of the words “it’s impossible”
My subconscious had melded the lyrics and melody of two songs. Perhaps it is the distinctive delivery by Dame Shirley Bassey that assisted this mind mix.
I remember a series of lines starting with “It’s impossible to dah dah dah” to the tune of “Never, Never, Never”.
My attempts to recreate the conglomeration yields a most unsatisfactory product. Looking something like the following:
It’s impossible to tell the sun to leave the sky
It’s impossible to ask a baby not to cry
It’s impossible to keep the ocean from rushin’ on the shore
It’s impossible for me to not ask for more
It’s impossible to stop the stars from shining high above
It’s impossible to live without your love
so true, all of these –
Thank you 😊
I love Shirley Bassey and love “It’s Impossible,” (but didn’t know she sang it).
Your prose sparkles. I can add that first paragraph to one of my loves.
Thank you.
That was lovely.
I try to challenge as many ‘impossible’ beliefs as I can.
I’m pleased you liked it.
