Down the street the dogs are barking,
And the day is a-getting dark.
As the night comes in a-fallin',
The dogs, they'll lose their bark.
And the silent night will shatter,
From the sounds inside my mind.
And I'm one too many mornings,
And a thousand miles behind.
From the crossroads of my doorstep,
My eyes start to fade.
And 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 saying,
You can say it just as good.
You are right from your side,
And I am right from mine.
We're both just one too many mornings,
And a thousand miles behind.
