[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 3]
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
