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

The sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue

All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home
Your empty handed armies, are going home
Your lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all her blankets from your floor

The carpet too is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue

Leave your stepping stones behind , something calling for you
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore

Strike another match, girl start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue

It's all over now, Baby Blue
It's all over now, Baby Blue
