Lyrics for It's All Over Now, Baby Blue - Version One

You better go now, take what you want You think will last But if there's something you wish to keep Better grab it fast Yonder stands your orphan with his gun Crying like a fire in the sun Look out for who, the saints are comin' 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 foldin' under you And it's all over now, baby blue All your seasick sailors, they are goin' home Your empty-handed armies, they are goin' home Your lover who just walked out the door Has taken all his blankets from the floor The carpet too is movin' under you And it's all over now, baby blue It's all over now, baby blue It's all over now, baby blue
