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 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 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 And a thousand miles behind
