The End Of The World

(album: Stand By Your Man - 1970)

Why does the sun go on shining?
And why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world
Cause you don't love me any more

Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love

I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does

Why does my heart go on beating
And why do these eyes of mine cry
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye

Why does the sun go on shining?
And why does the sea rush to shore?
Oh, don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye
