Lyrics
You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last
You should depart now, taking what possessions you believe will endure
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast
But anything you want to hold onto, you should do so quickly
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun
Over there is your forsaken figure with a gun
Crying like a fire in the sun
Weeping intensely, resembling a fire in the sunlight
Look out the saints are comin' through
Be cautious, the revered individuals are advancing
And it's all over now, baby blue
And everything is finished for you now, Baby Blue
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense
The road is for risk-takers, it's prudent to use your judgment
Take what you have gathered from coincidence
Take what you've collected from chance encounters
The empty-handed painter from your streets
The artist who possesses nothing from your neighborhood
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheet
Is creating unconventional designs on your bed
This sky, too, is folding under you
This sky, too, is collapsing around you
And it's all over now, baby blue
And it's all concluded for you now, Baby Blue
All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home
All your seasick sailors are returning home
All your reindeer armies are all going home
All your armies, like fleets of reindeer, are also heading home
Your lover who just walked out your door
Your departed lover
Has taken all her blankets from the floor
Took away all her belongings from where she slept
The carpet, too, is moving under you
The ground beneath you is also shifting
And it's all over now, baby blue
And it's all ended for you now, Baby Blue
Leave your stepping stones behind you, something calls for you
Abandon the markers of your past, something is calling you forward
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you
Don't dwell on the deceased, they won't accompany you
A vagabond who's rapping at your door
A wanderer knocking on your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore
Is wearing the attire you once had
Strike another match, let's start anew
Ignite a new beginning, start afresh
And it's all over now, baby blue
And it's all concluded for you now, Baby Blue
Oh, it's all over now, baby blue
Oh, it's all concluded for you now, Baby Blue
