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?
If you don't love me anymore.
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.
[Chorus:]
I wake up in the morning and I wonder.
Why everything is the same as it was.
And I can't understand,
No I can't understand Why 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 we said goodbye.
[Chorus]
I wake up in the morning and I wonder.
Why everything is the same as it was.
'cause I can't understand,
No I can't understand Why life goes on the way it does.
Tell me 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 we said goodbye.
Why?
It ended when we said goodbye.
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
If you don't love me anymore.
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.
[Chorus:]
I wake up in the morning and I wonder.
Why everything is the same as it was.
And I can't understand,
No I can't understand Why 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 we said goodbye.
[Chorus]
I wake up in the morning and I wonder.
Why everything is the same as it was.
'cause I can't understand,
No I can't understand Why life goes on the way it does.
Tell me 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 we said goodbye.
Why?
It ended when we said goodbye.

Nina Gordon's voice is hauntingly beautiful, which works so well for the lyrics.
This is like the most beautiful, sad song out there...it's the ultimate break up/lost love song, and Nina's voice just fits so very well with the lyrics...
