How can those birds keep on singing
They can't make me smile against my will
How can this big old world keep on spinning
When my whole world is standing still
Sunny day, you're such a mystery
How can you shine when I'm in misery
Not a single cloud or drop of rain
To set the mood for my pain
How can those birds keep on singing
They can't make me smile against my will
How can this big old world keep on spinning
When my whole world is standing still
I'm all alone, he left so heartlessly
His goodbye broke every part of me
Why is the sky the brightest blue
I need a storm passing through
How can those birds keep on singing
They can't make me smile against my will
How can this big old world keep on spinning
When my whole world is standing still
