River of Dreams
In the middle of the nightI go walking in my sleepFrom the mountains of faithTo a river so deepI must be looking for somethingSomething sacred I lostBut the river is wideAnd it's too hard to crossAnd even though I know the river is wideI walk down every evening and I stand on the shoreAnd try to cross to the opposite sideSo I can finally find out what I've been looking forIn the middle of the nightI go walking in my sleepThrough the valley of fearTo a river so deepAnd I've been searching for somethingTaken out of my soulSomething I would never loseSomething somebody stoleI don't know why I go walking at nightBut now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymoreI hope it doesn't take the rest of my lifeSongtexteUntil I find what it is that I've been looking forIn the middle of the nightI go walking in my sleepThrough the jungle of doubtTo a river so deepI know I'm searching for somethingSomething so undefinedThat it can only be seenBy the eyes of the blindIn the middle of the nightI'm not sure about a life after thisGod knows I've never been a spiritual manBaptized by the fire, I wade into the riverThat runs to the promised landIn the middle of the nightI go walking in my sleepThrough the desert of truthTo the river so deepWe all end in the oceanWe all start in the streamsWe're all carried alongBy the river of dreamsIn the middle of the night Aus Songtexte Mania
