Joe Cocker Standing knee deep in a River Lyrics

Friends I could count on
I could count on one hand
With a left over finger or two
I took them all 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
And dying 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

And 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

Now the sidewalk is crowded
The city rolls by
And I rush through another day
A world full of strangers
Turn there eyes to me
I just look the other way

And they roll by just like water
I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
And dying of thirst

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

You should try it some time.....
