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
When you don't love me anymore?

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

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

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

Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye
