Man of La Mancha (Don Quixote) soundtrack – To Each His Dulcinea (To Every Man His Dream) lyrics

To each his Dulcinea ...
That he alone can name,
To each a secret hiding place:
Where he can find the haunting face --
To light his secret flame ...
For with his Dulcinea beside him so to stand,
A man can do quite anything:
Outfly the bird upon the wing --
Hold moonlight in his hand ...
Yet if you build your life on dreams,
It's prudent to recall:
A man with moonlight in his hands --
Has nothing there at all ...
There is no Dulcinea ...
She's made of flame and air,
And yet how lovely life would seem:
If every man could weave a dream --
To keep him from despair.
To each his Dulcinea ...
Though she's only flame and air ...
