Down the street, the dogs are barkin’

And the day is gettin’ dark

As the night comes in a-fallin’

The dogs, they’ll lose their bark

An’ the silent night will shatter

From the sounds inside my mind

As I’m one too many mornings

And a thousand miles behind

From the crossroads of my doorstep

My eyes begin to fade

And I turn my head back to the room

Where my love and I have laid

An’ I gaze back to the street

The sidewalks and the sign

Never know I’m one too many mornings

An’ a thousand miles behind

It’s a restless hungry feeling

And it don’t mean no one no good

When ev’rything that I’m sayin’

You can say it just as good

You’re right from your side

And I’m right from mine

We’re both just one too many mornings

An’ a thousand miles behind
