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 a gun And he's crying like a fire out in the sun Look out now, the saints are comin' through, yeah Well, it's all over now, baby blue And the highways are for gamblers, you better use your sense Take what you have gathered from coincidence And the empty-handed painter from your street Is drawing crazy patterns upon your sheet The sky, too, is folding under you Yeah, it's all over now, baby blue Yeah, that lover who has just walked out the door Has taken all his blankets from the floor And the carpet, too, is moving under you, oh yeah And it's all over now, baby blue Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for me And forget the dead you left, they will not follow me The vagabond who's rapping at your door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore Well, strike another match, go start anew, yeah, yeah Yeah, it's all over now, baby blue I'll tell you again, it's all over now, baby blue It's all over now, baby blue
