One Less Set of Footsteps

One Less Set of Footsteps - Jim Croce (吉姆·克羅斯)

We been runnin' 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

When you that slammin' door

'Cause there 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

Makes us what we are

And you been talkin' in silence

But if it's silence you adore

Oh there'll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor in the mornin'

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'

But tomorrow's a dream away

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

That's the way I want it more

There'll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor

In the mornin'

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'

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

That's the way I want it more

'Coz there'll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor in the mornin'

There'll be one less set of footsteps

On your floor

In the mornin'
