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 Strike another match, go start anew It's all over now, Baby Blue All your seasick sailors They are rowing home And all your empty handed armies They are going home Your lover who just walked out the door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore The carpet, too, is moving under you It's all over now, Baby Blue Leave your stepping stones behind There's something that calls for you Forget the dead you've left They will not follow you Your vagabond who's rapping at your door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore The sky, too, is falling over you It's all over now, Baby Blue
