My Babys 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 And hold back the sun My world has ended My baby’s gone Milkman whistles softly As he comes up to my door The mailman brings the letters by Just like he did before They seem so busy all day long As though there’s nothing wrong Don’t they know the world has ended My baby’s gone I wake up sometimes in the night And realize you’re gone And then I toss upon my bed And wait for day to come I try to tell my lonely heart It must go on alone But it cries the world has ended My baby’s gone Chorus Don’t they know the world has ended My baby’s gone
