Down the street the dogs are barkin' |
|
And the day is a-gettin' dark |
|
As the night comes in a-fallin' |
|
The dogs'll lose their bark |
|
An' the silent night will shatter |
|
From the sounds inside my minds |
|
For I'm one too many mornings |
|
And a thousand miles behind. |
|
From the crossroads of my doorstep |
|
My eyes start to fade |
|
As I turn my head back to the room |
|
Where my love and I have laid |
|
An' I gaze back to the street |
|
The sidewalk and the sign |
|
And I'm one too many mornings |
|
An' a thousand miles behind. |
|
It's a restless hungry feeling |
|
That don't mean no one no good |
|
When ev'rything I'm a-sayin' |
|
You can say it just as good |
|
You're right from your side |
|
I'm right from mine |
|
We're both just too many mornings |
|
An' a thousand miles behind. |
