「The end of the world」是1963年相當受歡迎的一首歌，曾是錢櫃雜誌 (Cashbox，現已停刊 )該年度的年終排行冠軍曲，也是鄉村女歌手Skeeter Davis唯一的傳世之作。從內容看來，這又是一首失戀的情歌，但原作曲者乃是因為父親逝世，覺得猶如世界末日一般而寫出這首歌。Skeeter Davis的演唱平實而動人，而且自己擔任和聲，成就了一首流行經典。



The end of the world   Skeeter Davis

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 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

 世界末日   史琪特戴維絲

太陽為何依然照耀
海浪為何拍打著岩岸
難道它們不知道這是世界末日
因為你不再愛我了

鳥兒為何依然歌唱
星星為何在天上閃耀
難道它們不知道這是世界末日
當我失去了你的愛

當我清晨醒來
納悶著為何一切如常
我無法了解，我真的無法了解
生命怎會像往常一樣運行

我的心為何仍在跳動
我的雙眼為何在流淚
難道它們不知道這是世界末日
當你說再見的時候
