Impossible
Sanchez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did, I did

And you were strong and I was not
My illusion, my mistake
I was careless, I forgot
I did

And now when all is done
There is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won
You can go ahead tell them

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now

Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible

Falling out of love is hard
Falling for betrayal is worse
Broken trust and broken hearts
I know, I know

Thinking all you need is there
Building faith on love and words
Empty promises will wear
I know, I know

And now when all is gone
There is nothing to say
And if you're done with embarrassing me
On your own you can go ahead tell them

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now

Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible!
Ooh impossible (yeah yeah)

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now

Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take




Caution when it comes to love
I did...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sanchez's song "Impossible" express the emotional turmoil of a person who has experienced heartbreak due to a failed relationship. The opening lines indicate a warning that was given to the singer years ago to be cautious about love. The singer confesses that they followed this advice, but it was not enough to prevent the heartbreak. The lines "And you were strong, and I was not, my illusion, my mistake, I was careless, I forgot" reveal that the relationship failed due to a lack of effort from one person, which led to confusion and misunderstandings.


As the song progresses, the singer seems to have accepted that the relationship is over and there is nothing left to say. The lines "And now when all is done, there is nothing to say, you have gone and so effortlessly, you have won" show that the person has moved on and accepts that the relationship is over. The singer tries to tell everyone about their heartbreak, hoping to heal the wounds and move on.


The chorus "Tell them all I know now, shout it from the rooftops, write it on the skyline, all we had is gone now, tell them I was happy, and my heart is broken, all my scars are open, tell them what I hoped would be impossible" shows a person coming to terms with the end of their relationship, ready to move on and hopeful for the future.
