Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Friends I could count on, I could count on one hand
With a leftover finger or two
I took them for granted, let 'em all slip away
Now where they are I wish I knew
[Chorus]
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 dying of thirst
[Verse 2]
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?
[Chorus]
They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river and dying of thirst
[Instrumental]
So the sidewalk is crowded, the city rolls 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
[Chorus]
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 dying of thirst
We go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river and dying of thirst
