Jim Croce - One Less Set of Footsteps lyrics
[Jim Croce - One Less Set of Footsteps lyrics]
We've been runnin' away 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' excited oh-when
You hear that slammin' door
Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'
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 silence you adore
Oh there'll be one less set of footprints
On your floor in the mornin'
Oh 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'
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 footprints
On your floor in the mornin'
Oh there'll be one less set of footsteps
On you floor in the mornin'
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' excited oh-when
You hear that slammin' door
Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'
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 silence you adore
Oh there'll be one less set of footprints
On your floor in the mornin'
Oh 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'
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 footprints
On your floor in the mornin'
Oh there'll be one less set of footsteps
On you floor in the mornin'
