Il testo della Standing knee deep in a river

Don Williams

pochette album Standing knee deep in a river

Friends i could count on, i could count on one hand
With a left over finger or two
I took them for granted, let them 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
Standing knee deep in a river, dying of thirst

Sometimes i remember the good people ive known
Some ive forgotten i suppose
One or two still linger
Oh, 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
Standing knee deep in a river, dying of thirst

So the sidewalk is crowded, the city goes by
I just rushed 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
Standing knee deep in a river, dying of thirst

Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river, dying of thirst
