One Less Set Of Footsteps

(album: Now And Then - 2009)

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

We've been hiding from something
That should've never gone this far
After all it's what we've done
That makes us what we are

You've been talking in silence
But if it's silence you adore
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 woman walking
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
Well, that's the way I want it more
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning

There'll be one less set of footsteps on your floor
One less woman walking
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
Well, that's the way I want it more
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
One less set of footsteps
On your floor in the morning
