Standing Knee Deep in a River lyrics

Friends I could count on
I could count on one hand
With a leftover finger or two
I took 'em for granted
Let 'em all slip away
Now where they are, I wish I knew

They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standin' knee deep in a river and dyin' of thirst

Sometimes I remember
Sweethearts I've known
Some I've forgotten, I suppose
One or two still linger
Oh and I wonder now
Why I ever let them go?

They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standin' knee deep in a river and dyin' of thirst

So the sidewalk is crowded
The city goes by
And I rush through another day
And a world full of strangers
Turn their eyes to me
But I just look the other way

They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standin' knee deep in a river and dyin' of thirst

They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standin' knee deep in a river and dyin' of thirst
