Here is the link for a cute video of "In the Middle of the Night" by Billy Joel. The lyrics are as follows:
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 lookin' 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 stand on the shore
I try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find 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 I've been looking for
(Three beat Pause)
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the 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 (break)
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 is runnin' through the promised land (Long Five beat Pause)
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

Linking words
The first and second parts of the documents on linking words are hereby available. You can also find the key for the exercises here. As you do the exercises, please remember the following three types of linking words we have identified:
In all these examples, please pay special attention to the punctuation.
- Linking words that connect two parts of the same sentence as in the following example: We only have one week off for Easter, so we will be staying in Brussels.
- Linking words that connect two separate sentences as in the following four examples, which are different ways of saying the same thing:
- We only have one week off for Easter. Therefore, we will be staying in Brussels.
- We only have one week off for Easter; therefore, we will be staying in Brussels.
- We only have one week off for Easter. We will, therefore, be staying in Brussels.
- We only have one week off for Easter; we will, therefore, be staying in Brussels.
- Linking words that are covered under both the first and second types as in the four following examples:
- Besides giving his friend a lift after work, he helped her with her grocery shopping.
- He helped his friend with her grocery shopping, besides giving her a lift after work.
- I am afraid I am not allowed to help you with that question. Besides, I do not know the answer myself.
- I am afraid I am not allowed to help you with that question; besides, I do not know the answer myself.
In all these examples, please pay special attention to the punctuation.
