One Too Many Mornings – Angel Olsen (from “Shining Girls” soundtrack)
By
Down the street the dogs are barking And the day is getting dark As the night comes in a-falling The dogs will lose their bark And the silent night will shatter From the sounds inside my mind As I’m one too many mornings And a thousand miles behind
From the crossroads of my doorstep My eyes begin to fade And I turn my head back to the room Where my love and I have laid And I gaze back to the street The sidewalk and the sign Never know I’m one too many mornings And a thousand miles behind
It’s a restless hungry feeling That don’t mean no one no good When everything that I’m saying You can say it just as good You’re right from your side And I’m right from mine We’re both just one too many mornings And a thousand miles behind
We’re both just one too many mornings And a thousand miles behind
