One Too Many Mornings

Down the street the dogs are barkin' And the day is a-gettin' dark As the night comes in a-fallin' The dogs will lose their bark And the silent night will shatter To the sounds inside my mind When I'm one too many mornings And a thousand miles behind From the crossroads of my doorstep My eyes they begin 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 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-singin' You can sing it just as good You are right on your side And I am right on mine We're not just one too many mornings And a thousand miles behind
