A while back, i heard a song on a movie...i don't remember if it was at the end or what, but the haunting words seemed to hit a note inside my heart. It resonated with the bittersweet emotions i wrestle with concerning my daughter's death. It put to words a little of what it felt like to be in my shoes.
well..last night i heard it again and after so many years of trying to find it, i knew this was the song at the first note...it's :The End of the World by 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
