C – – – – The River Of Dreams – – – – 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 river is wide
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore
I try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally 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 river so deep
I’ve been searching for something, Taken out of my soul
Something I’d never lose, Something somebody stole
I don’t know why I go walking at night
But now I’m tired and I don’t want to walk anymore
I hope 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 walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt, To a 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 after this
God knows I’ve never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That runs to the promised 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 carried along, By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night
