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 river so deep
I must be looking for something
Something sacred I lost
But the river is wide
And it's too hard to cross

Even though I know the (1)__________ is wide
I (2)________ (3)________ (4)__________ evening and I stand on the shore
I try to (5)__________ to the (6)________________ side
So I can (7)______________ find out what I've been looking for

In the middle of the night
I go (8)______________ in my sleep
Through the (9)____________ of fear
To a (10)__________ so deep
I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I'd never lose
Something somebody stole

I don't (11)________ why I go walking at night
But now I'm tired and I don't (12)________ to walk anymore
I hope it doesn't (13)________ the (14)________ of my life
Until I find (15)________ it is (16)________ I've been (17)______________ for

In the (18)____________ of the night
I go (19)______________ in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the (20)__________ so deep
I know I'm searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the (21)________ of the blind
In the middle of the night

I'm not (22)________ about a life (23)__________ this
God (24)__________ I've never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade (25)________ the river
That is running to the promise land

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all (26)__________ in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the (27)____________ of the night
