It's All Over Now, Baby Blue

from A Sudden Change of Heart by Frank Lyon

lyrics

You must leave now, take what you need you think will last
Whatever you wish to keep you better grab it fast
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun
He’s crying like a fire in the sun
Look out, the saints are coming 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
The sky too is folding over you
And it’s all over now, baby blue

All your seasick sailors, they’re all rowing home
Your empty-handed armies they’re all going home
And the lover who just walked out of your door
Has taken all his blankets from your floor
The carpet too is moving over 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 wrapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once more
Strike another match, go start anew
It’s all over now, baby blue
