You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last
But whatever you wish to keep, you'd better grab it fast
He understands your orphan with his gun
Crying like a fire in the sun
Look out baby, 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
Leave your stepping stones behind, there's something that calls for you
Forget the dead you've left, that will not follow you
Your lover who has just walked through the door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, baby blue
Well Strike another match, go start a new
And it's all over now, baby blue
