今早起牀，扭開收音機，意外聽見 The End of the World 這首老歌。新版本的歌者唱得不錯，但自己還是較喜歡 Skeeter Davis 的演繹：

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 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.

I wake up in the morning and I wonder why ev'rything'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 good-bye.

細讀歌詞，發覺內容其實挺灰暗，但 Skeeter Davis 唱得甜美，聽起來也不大傷感。

不過說到底，還是自己心情不錯吧？
