Down the street the dogs are barkin' and the day is gettin' dark As the night comes in a-fallin' the dogs will lose their bark And the silent night will shatter from the sounds inside my mind For i'm one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind From the crossroads of my doorstep, my eyes, they start to fade As i turn my head back to the room where my love and i have laid And i gaze back to the street, the sidewalk, and the sign And i'm one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind It's a restless hungry feeling that don't mean no one no good When everything i'm a-sayin', you can say it just as good You're right from your side, i am right from mine We're both just one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind
