Standing Knee Deep In A River (Dying Of Thirst)

In the style of

Kathy Mattea

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

we go through life
parched and empty
standing 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

we go through life
parched and empty
standing 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

we go through life
parched and empty
standing knee-deep
in a river
and dyin' of thirst

they roll by
just like water
and i guess
we never learn

we go through life
parched and empty
standing knee-deep
in a river
and dyin' of thirst
