The streets are dark tonight 
The city is quiet now 
It's good to be away 
Those people they talk too loud 
It's too early to go home 
This is no time to be alone

Something inside died today 
Our last chance just slipped away 
The blues this morning came to stay 
There's nothing left to say 

It's over now, my friend 
It's over now, my friend 
The child's dream's been swept away 
What fools we must have been 
For good or worse we've lost forever 
What we were before 
It's over, the light don't shine no more 

They came to shake my hand 
I don't want them to touch me now 
They said, "Congratulations" but it's too late now 
Where were they when I called?
How could they forget it all?

Didn't you get what you need?
The fight was lost, it wasn't meant to be 
It isn't as hard for you to leave 
There's no easy way for me 

It's over now, my friend 
It's over now, my friend 
The child's dreams been swept away 
What fools we must have been 
For good or worse we've lost forever 
What we were before 
It's over, the light don't shine no more
It's over, the light don't shine no more
No more
It just don't shine no more
