(words & music by rodgers)

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



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

Cause 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

Oh there might have been a way somehow

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 set my feet before me

Walk the silent street before me

Now it's over



If time were not a moving thing

And i could make you 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



It's over
