Down the street, the dogs are barkin´ and the day is a-gettin´ dark
As the night comes in a-falling, the dogs will lose their bark
And the silent night will shatter from the sounds inside my mind

[Refrain]
Yes, 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

[Refrain]
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 a-sayin´, you can say it just as good
You´re right from your side, I am right from mine

[Refrain]
We´re both just one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind
