it's all over now baby blue

You better split the scene, take what you need, the past is past Whatever you wanna keep, you better grab it fast
 your orphan girl in the corner with her gun is cryin' like a fire in the sun Look out mama,  the saints are marching through Ohh and it's all over now, Baby Blue The highway is for gamblers, better use good sense Take what you have gathered from coincidence The empty-handed painter from your streets Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets The sky of blue is melting over you Ohh it's all over now, Baby Blue All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home Your reindeer navigators, they are parked outside of Nome The vagabond who's rapping at your door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore Strike another match,  light one up. let's start anew Ohh because it's all over now, Baby Blue Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you Pity pays no mind, they will not follow you Your lover fool has just walked through the door He's dragging  all his blankets across your floor and your fancy Persian rug is moving right under you Ohh and it's all over now, Baby Blue

that he wrote nonesense

for the most part
