One Less Set Of Footsteps

(album: Three Good Reasons - 1992)

We 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 getting excited
When you hear that slamming door
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning

And we've been hiding 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
But if it's silence you adore
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 girl to walk in
One less pair of jeans upon your door
One less voice a-talking

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
Well, 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 girl to walk in
One less pair of jeans upon your door
One less voice a-talking

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
Well, 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 in the morning
