THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM - FROM A BROADWAY MUSICAL

Now playing in channel Stardustpiano / YouTube, "The Impossible Dream (The Quest)" is a popular song composed by Mitch Leigh, with lyrics written by Joe Darion. It was written for the 1965 Broadway musical Man of La Mancha and originally performed by that play's star Richard Kiley and is also featured in the 1972 film of the same name starring Peter O'Toole. The complete song is first sung by Don Quixote as he stands vigil over his armor, in response to Aldonza (Dulcinea)'s question about what he means by "following the quest". It is reprised partially three more times – the last by prisoners in a dungeon as Miguel de Cervantes and his manservant mount the drawbridge-like prison staircase to face trial by the Spanish Inquisition. Leigh received the Contemporary Classics Award from the Songwriter's Hall of Fame for the song. A version recorded by Jack Jones in 1966 peaked at No. 35 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and reached No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart. This song was so popular that it was recorded by many artist back then and even today. Visit Stardustpiano again to hear your favorite songs from various eras and genre.

LYRICS To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not go To right the unrightable wrong To love, pure and chaste, from afar To try, when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable star This is my quest, to follow that star No matter how hopeless, no matter how far To fight for the right without question or pause To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause And I know if I'll only be true To this glorious quest That my heart will lie peaceful and calm When I'm laid to my rest And the world will be better for this That one man, scorned and covered with scars Still strove, with his last ounce of courage To reach the unreachable star!
