End Of The World

Nancy Sinatra · Other Songs - Nancy Sinatra

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

The song became a major hit, cementing her status as a leading female vocalist of the 1960s.

The track remains a staple of her discography, frequently celebrated for its timeless arrangement and Sinatra's commanding vocal performance that conveys profound sentiment without relying on excessive ornamentation.
