Down the streets the dogs are barkin' And the day is a-gettin' dark As the night comes in a-fallin The dogs'll lose their bark And 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.
