Mary Hopkin One Less Set of Footsteps song lyrics
We've been runnin' away from
Somethin' 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 hear that slammin' door.
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'.
We've been hidin' from somethin'
That should've never gone this far.
After all it's what we've done
That makes us what we are.
You've been talkin' in silence.
But if it's silence you adore
Well, 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 woman walkin',
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
Well, that's the way I want it more.
Well, 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,
One less woman walkin',
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
Well, that's the way I want it more.
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin',
One less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'.
