[Verse 1]
If time were not a moving thing
And I could make it stay
This hour of love we share would always be
There'd be no coming day
To shine a morning light
And make us realize our night is over
[Verse 2]
And when you walk away from me
There is no place to put my hand
Except to shade my eyes against the sun that rises o'er the land
I watch you walk away, somehow, I have to let you go
'Cause it's over
[Bridge]
If you knew just how I really feel
You might return and yet
There are so many times
That people have to love and then forget
There might have been a way, somehow
I have to force myself to say it's over
[Outro]
And so I turn my back
I turn my collar to the wind
I walk along in silence, trying not to think at all
I set my feet before me, walk the silent street before me
'Cause it's over
It's over
