It's Over Lyrics - 'til The Band Comes In - Scott Walker

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 

To make us realize 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 over the land 

I watch you walk away 

Somehow if 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 

Though 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 share would always be 

There'd be no coming day 

To shine a morning light 

To make us realize our night is over 

It's over
