Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : Jones, Lee, McDill
[00:16.15] Friends I could count on,
[00:19.08] I could count on one hand
[00:21.64]
[00:22.95] With a leftover finger or two
[00:27.13]
[00:30.19] I took 'em for granted, let 'em all slip away
[00:36.11]
[00:37.61] Now where they are I wish I knew
[00:41.35]
[00:43.05] They roll by just like water
[00:48.84]
[00:52.77] And I guess we never learn
[00:56.40]
[00:57.71] Go through life parched and empty
[01:03.45] Standing knee deep in a river and dying of thirst
[01:10.43]
[01:17.49] Sometimes I remember sweethearts I've known
[01:23.23]
[01:24.72] Some I've forgotten I suppose
[01:28.72]
[01:31.72] One or two still linger, oh, and I wonder now
[01:37.51]
[01:39.64] Why I ever let them go?
[01:43.07]
[01:44.75] They roll by just like water
[01:50.88]
[01:54.43] And I guess we never learn
[01:58.11]
[01:59.23] Go through life parched and empty
[02:04.98] Standing knee deep in a river and dying of thirst
[02:12.33]
[02:26.07] So the sidewalk is crowded, the city goes by
[02:31.88]
[02:33.24] And I rush through another day
[02:37.04]
[02:40.60] And a world full of strangers turn their eyes to me
[02:46.09]
[02:47.85] But I just look the other way
[02:51.83]
[02:53.46] They roll by just like water
[02:59.27]
[03:02.94] And I guess we never learn
[03:06.75]
[03:07.81] Go through life parched and empty
[03:13.50] Standing knee deep in a river and dying of thirst
[03:21.11]
[03:22.10] They roll by just like water
[03:27.71]
[03:31.65] And I guess we never learn
[03:35.39]
[03:36.46] Go through life parched and empty
[03:42.07] Standing knee deep in a river and dying of thirst
