Can't Be Done
Everywhere I dare to go, the corners that I turn
I'm sure to see a face I know, someone who doesn't earn
That's all I ever get to hear, is other people's woe
Let's climb into a rocket and we'll press the one and go
Although they say it can't be done
Don't say to me it can't be done
Looking how we used to be, the way and what we wore
The things we hoped the future held but always wanted more
If God had meant for man to fly he would have given wings
He didn't, so we have to make the best of everything
So let's not say it can't be done
Although they say it can't be done
Don't say to me everybody says it can't be done
That there ain't no chance at all
Anybody can be right or wrong
When there ain't no chance at all
Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well
I've got a feelin' strange to me I wish that I could tell
It won't be long before we push the button I am sure
So throw away the key while I am locked behind the door
You're telling me it can't be done
Stop telling me it can't be done
Don't say to me everybody says it can't be done
That there ain't no chance at all
Anybody can be right or wrong
When there ain't no chance at all
Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well
I've got a feelin' strange to me I wish that I could tell
It won't be long before we push the button I am sure
So throw away the key while I am locked behind the door
You're telling me it can't be done
Stop telling me it can't be done
Let's pray and pray it can be done
Just pray and pray it can be done
It can be done
It can be done
It can be done
It can be done
It can be done
I'm sure to see a face I know, someone who doesn't earn
That's all I ever get to hear, is other people's woe
Let's climb into a rocket and we'll press the one and go
Although they say it can't be done
Don't say to me it can't be done
Looking how we used to be, the way and what we wore
The things we hoped the future held but always wanted more
If God had meant for man to fly he would have given wings
He didn't, so we have to make the best of everything
So let's not say it can't be done
Although they say it can't be done
Don't say to me everybody says it can't be done
That there ain't no chance at all
Anybody can be right or wrong
When there ain't no chance at all
Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well
I've got a feelin' strange to me I wish that I could tell
It won't be long before we push the button I am sure
So throw away the key while I am locked behind the door
You're telling me it can't be done
Stop telling me it can't be done
Don't say to me everybody says it can't be done
That there ain't no chance at all
Anybody can be right or wrong
When there ain't no chance at all
Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well
I've got a feelin' strange to me I wish that I could tell
It won't be long before we push the button I am sure
So throw away the key while I am locked behind the door
You're telling me it can't be done
Stop telling me it can't be done
Let's pray and pray it can be done
Just pray and pray it can be done
It can be done
It can be done
It can be done
It can be done
It can be done
