One Too Many Mornings
[Verse 1]
Up the street the dogs are barking
The day is getting dark
'Cause the night comes-a-falling
The dogs lose their bark
The silent night is shattered
By the sounds inside my mind
I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind
[Verse 2]
As I gaze from my doorstep
My eyes start to fade
Back to the room
Where my love and I have laid
I gaze to the sidewalk
The lamppost and the sign
I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind
[Verse 3]
It's just a restless, hungry feeling
That just don't mean no one no good
Everything I'm feeling
Why I never thought I would
And you're right from your side
I'll be right from mine
We're both one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind
[Verse 4]
Up the street the dogs start barking
And the day is getting light
I just spent another
Lonely, lonely, restless night
'Cause you're right from your side
And I'm right from mine
We're both one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind
