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
The silent night will shatter
From the sounds inside my mind
As I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind
From the crossroads of my doorstep
My eyes begin to fade
And I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid
An' I gaze back to the streets
The sidewalks and the signs
And I know, I'm one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind
It's a restless hungry feeling
And it don't mean no one no good
When ev'rything that I'm a-sayin'
You can say it just as good
You are right from your side
And I'm right from mine
We're both one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind
I've no right to be here
If you've no right to stay
Or tell about the one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles away
