[Verse 1]
You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last
Whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast
Yonder stands the orphan with his gun
He's crying like a fire in the sun

[Refrain]
Look out, all the saints are coming through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue

[Verse 2]
The highway is for gamblers, you 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

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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
All your seasick sailors, they arе rowing home
Your empty-handed armiеs are all going home
Your lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor
[Refrain]
But, come anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue

[Verse 4]
Leave all your stepping stones behind unless something calls for you
Forget about the dead you've left, they will not follow you
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Standing in the clothes that you once wore

[Refrain]
Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue

[Outro]
And it's all over now, Baby Blue
And it's all over now, Baby Blue
It's all over now, Baby Blue
