Title: The Impossible Dream (Quest)
Artist: Andy Williams


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 be 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 fight the unbeatable foe,
To reach the unreachable star.


The Impossible Dream (The Quest)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


"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 musical Man of La Mancha. It is the main song from the musical and became its most popular hit.

The song is sung all the way through once in the musical 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.
