[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]
When you walk away from me
There is no place to put my hand
Except to shade my eyes against the sun
That rises over the land
I watch you walk away
Somehow I have to let you go
Now, it's over
[Verse 3]
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
Oh, there might have been a way
I have to force myself to say
"It's over"
[Verse 4]
So I turn my back
And turn my collar to the wind
Move along in silence
Trying not to think at all
I set my feet before me
Walk the silent street before me
It's over
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
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
[Outro]
It's over
