Standing Knee Deep In A River (Dying Of Thirst)
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. Letras de cancionesSweethearts 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. From Letras Mania
