Down the street the dogs are barkin’
And the day is a-gettin’ dark
As the night comes in a-fallin’
Those dogs’ll lose their bark
And the silent night will shatter
From the thoughts inside my mind
Cause we're both one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind

From the crossroads of my doorstep
My eyes start to fade
As I turn my head back to the room
My love and I have laid
And I turn back to the street
To the sidewalk and the sign
Cause we're both one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind

It’s a restless weary feeling
That won't do no one no good
When everything I’m sayin’
You can say it just as good
You’re right from your side
And I’m right from mine
We’re just one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind
