| You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last
|
| But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast
|
| Yonder stands your orphan with his gun
|
| Crying like a fire in the sun
|
| Look out, the saints are comin' through
|
| And it’s all over now, Baby Blue
|
| The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense
|
| Take what you have gathered from coincidence
|
| The empty-handed painter from your streets
|
| Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets
|
| This sky, too, is folding under you
|
| And it’s all over now, Baby Blue
|
| All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home
|
| All your reindeer armies are all going home
|
| The lover who just walked out your door
|
| Has taken all his blankets from the floor
|
| The carpet, too, is moving under you
|
| And it’s all over now, Baby Blue
|
| Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you
|
| Forget the dead you’ve left, they will not follow you
|
| The vagabond who’s rapping at your door
|
| Is standing in the clothes that you once wore
|
| Strike another match, go start anew
|
| And it’s all over now, Baby Blue |
