The River Of Dreams by Billy Joel

In the middle of the night

I go walking in my sleep
From the mountains of faith
To the (1)__________ so deep
I must be (2)______________ for something
Something sacred I lost
But the (3)__________ is wide
And it's too hard to cross

Even (4)____________ I know the river is wide
I (5)________ down every evening and I (6)__________ on the shore
I try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find out what I've been (7)______________ for

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear

I don't know why I go (8)______________ at night
But now I'm tired and I don't (9)________ to walk anymore
I (10)________ it doesn't take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is that I've been looking for

In the middle of the night
I go (11)______________ in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the river so deep
I know I'm searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night

I'm not sure about a life (12)__________ this

Baptized by the fire, I wade (14)________ the river
That is running to the (15)______________ land

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the (16)____________ of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night
