One too many mornings — Bob Dylan

Down the street the dogs are barkin’ And the day is a-gettin’ dark, As the night comes in a-fallin’, The dogs’ll lose their bark, An’ 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 one too many mornings, An’ a thousand miles behind.
