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 (1)____________ I lost
But the river is wide
And it's too hard to cross

Even though I know the river is wide

So I can finally find out what I've been looking for

In the middle of the night

Until I find 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 river so deep

By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night

Baptized by the fire, I wade into 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 (6)__________ so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all (7)__________ in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the (8)____________ of the night
