The end of the world

Skeeter Davis - The end of the world

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.

為何陽光依然燦爛
海浪仍舊沖刷著海岸
難道不覺末日來臨
只因你已不再愛我
為何鳥兒依然歌唱
星星仍舊在夜空閃爍
難道不覺末日來臨
當我失去你的愛
一切就都已結束
清晨醒來，我困惑
為何一切依然如故
我不懂，是的！我真的不懂
生活何以如此繼續
為何我心依然跳動
淚水仍舊盈滿了眼眶
末日來臨就在今朝
當你說出再見
一切都已完結
為何我心依然跳動
淚水仍舊盈滿了眼眶
末日來臨就在今朝
當你說出再見
一切都已完結
