It's Over

If time were not a moving thing

And I could make it stay

This hour of love we shared would always be

There'd be no coming day

To shine a morning light

And make us realize our night is over

When you walk away from me

There is no place to put my hands

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

It's over

If you knew just how I really feel

You might return and yet

There are so many times people have to learn

And then forget

Oh, there might have been a way

I have to force myself to say it's over

So I turn my back

Turn my collar to the wind

Move along in silence

Trying not to think at all

I send my feet before me

Walk the silent street before me

It's over

If time were not a moving thing

And I could make it stay

This hour of love we shared would always be

There'd be no coming day

To shine a morning light

And make us realize our night is over
