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