One Less Set of Footsteps
We've been running away from
Something we both know
We've long run out of things to say
And I think I better go
So don't be gettin' excited
Oh, when you hear that slammin' door
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
And we've been hidin' from something
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 talking in silence
Well, if it's silence you adore
Oh, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
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-talking
But tomorrow's a dream away
And today 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 morning
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-talking
But tomorrow's a dream away
When today 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
Oh, that's the way I want it more
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
Oh, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
Something we both know
We've long run out of things to say
And I think I better go
So don't be gettin' excited
Oh, when you hear that slammin' door
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
And we've been hidin' from something
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 talking in silence
Well, if it's silence you adore
Oh, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
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-talking
But tomorrow's a dream away
And today 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 morning
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-talking
But tomorrow's a dream away
When today 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
Oh, that's the way I want it more
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
Oh, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
