It’s Over (Not Even Diamonds Are Forever)

It’s over

My five feet of fortune and fame

And I now need a shoulder



It’s over

A quick stop to dry up and up and away

And I’m older



It’s not over, not over

Till it’s forgiven or forgotten

Right up this alley

Is Delirious Valley

And I’m heading that way

I’m heading that way



But it’s alright

It’s just my past

It would never last



It may have been glorious

It may have been fine

No more to keep

Than youth in a wine

And I’m heading that way

I’m heading that way



I’m already past

The present

And into the future



It may have been hard

It may have been with sorrow

But don’t let it strangle

The joys of tomorrow

And I’m heading that way

I’m heading that way



Learning

Is living

And I’ll never

Quit living



It’s over
