One Too Many Mornings

ONE TOO MANY MORNINGS

words and music Bob Dylan

Down the street the dogs are barkin'

And the day is a-gettin' dark.

As the night comes in a-fallin',

All the dogs will lose their bark.

An' the silent night will shatter

From the thoughts inside my mind,

For I'm one too many mornings

And a thousand miles behind.

At the crossroads of my doorstep,

My eyes they start to fade,

And 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 sayin'

You can say it just as good.

You're right from your side,

But I was right from mine.

We're both just too many mornings

An' a thousand miles behind.
