One Too Many Mornings Songtext
von The Highwaymen

Down the street the dogs are barkin′
And the day is a-gettin' dark
One the night begins to fall
Then a dogs′ll lose their bark
An' the silent night will shatter
From the sounds inside my mind
And I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind


From the crossroads of my doorstep
My eyes start to fade
And I turn back to the room
Where my love and I have laid
An′ I gaze cross the street
To the sidewalk and the sign
And just 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
An' i'm right from mine
We′re both just one too many mornings
A thousand miles behind

We′re just one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind

We′re just one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind

We′re just one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind
