If time were not a movin' 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 mornin' light
Make us realise our night
Is over

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
Now it's over

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

So I turn my back
I turn my collar to the wind
Move along in silence tryin' not to think at all
I send my feet before me
Walk the silent street before me
Now it's over
It's over
