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.
An´ 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.
An´ I gaze back to the street,
The sidewalk and the sign,
And I´m one too many mornings
An´ 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
An´ a thousand miles behind.
