Intro
Verse 1
We've been runnin' a
way from,
Somethin' we both
know,
We've
long run
out of
things to
say,
And I
think I'd
better
go.
So don't be gettin' e
xcited,
When you
hear that
slammin' d
oor,
'Cause there'll be
one less set of
footsteps
On your
floor in the
mornin'.
Verse 2
And we've been hidin' from
somethin',
That should have
never gone this
far,
But after
all it's
what we've
done,
That
makes us
what we
are.
And you've been talkin' in
silence,
Well, if it's s
ilence
you a
dore,
Oh, there'll be
one less set of
footsteps
On your
floor in the
mornin'.
Chorus
Well, there'll be
one less set of footsteps on your
floor,
One less
man to
walk in,
One less pair of jeans upon your
door,
One less
voice a-
talkin'.
Verse 3
But tomorrow's a
dream away,
And to
day has turned to
dust,
Your silver
tongue has
turned to
clay,
And your
golden
rule to
rust.
If that's the way that you
want it,
Well, that's the
way I
want it
more,
'Cause there'll be
one less set of
footsteps
On your
floor in the
mornin'.
Solo
Chorus
Well, there'll be
one less set of footsteps on your
floor,
One less
man to
walk in,
One less pair of jeans upon your
door,
One less
voice a-
talkin'.
Verse 4
But tomorrow's a
dream away,
And to
day has turned to
dust,
Your silver
tongue has
turned to
clay,
And your
golden
rule to
rust.
If that's the way that you
want it,
Well, that's the
way I
want it
more,
'Cause there'll be
one less set of
footsteps
On your
floor in the
mornin'.
Oh, there'll be
one less set of
footsteps
on your
floor in the
mornin'
