Dion - It's All Over Now, Baby Blue lyrics

rate me

You must leave, take what you need, you think will last<br />

But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast<br />

Yonder stands your orphan with his gun<br />

Crying like a fire in the sun<br />

<br />

Look out the saints are comin' through<br />

And it's all over now, baby blue<br />

<br />

The highway is for gamblers, better use your sins<br />

And take what you have gathered from coincidence<br />

The empty-handed painter from your streets<br />

Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets<br />

<br />

This sky too is folding under you<br />

And it's all over now, baby blue<br />

<br />

All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home<br />

You have to hand it army, they are going home<br />

Your lover who just walked out the door<br />

Has taken all his blankets from the floor<br />

<br />

The carpet too is moving under you<br />

And it's all over now, baby blue<br />

<br />

Leave your stepping stones behind<br />

There's something that calls for you now<br />

Forget about the dead, they will not follow you<br />

The vagabond who's rapping at your door<br />

Is standing in the clothes you once wore<br />

<br />

Strike another match, go start anew<br />

Oh it's all over now, baby blue
