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 (1)____________ I know the river is wide
I walk down every (2)______________ and I (3)__________ on the shore
I try to (4)__________ to the opposite side
So I can (5)______________ find out what I've been looking for

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a (6)__________ so deep
I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I'd (7)__________ lose
Something somebody stole

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

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the (11)__________ so deep
I (12)________ I'm (13)__________________ for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the (14)________ of the blind
In the middle of the night

I'm not sure about a (15)________ after this
God (16)__________ I've never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I (17)________ (18)________ the river
That is running to the (19)______________ 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 start in the streams
We're all (20)______________ along
By the (21)__________ of dreams
In the middle of the night
