(Hazel Houser)

Hold back the rushing minutes make the wind lie still
Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill
Dry all the raindrops then hold back the sun
The world has ended, my baby's gone.

I'll wake up almost every night and realize you're gone
I'll toss and turn and stare at darkness waiting for the dawn
I try to tell my lonely heart we'll make it alone
But it cries the world has ended, oh, my baby's gone.

Hold back the rushing minutes make the wind lie still
Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill
Dry all the raindrops hold back the sun
Don't they know the world has ended, my baby's gone.

Don't they know the world has ended, oh, my baby's gone...
