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 ev´rything´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

Don´t they know it´s the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye.
