Billy Joel – The River Of Dreams Lyrics 11 years ago
The person is searching for something within themselves that may have shined in the past and may have dulled or faded over the years -- a purity, an energy, an idea. Even though they may have failed in "crossing the river" they continue to attempt to do so. The person is not actually at a physical shore of a river so deep; he does realize there is something missing in his life and is working towards that fulfillment. I love this song so very much.
