Brian Halloran - 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
