Down the street, the dogs are barking
And the day is getting 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
And I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind.

From the crossroads of the 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 you're 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 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.
