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 My world has ended my baby's gone The milkman whistles sofltly as he comes up to my door And the mailman bring the letters by just like he did before They seem so busy all day long as if there's nothing wrong Don't they the know the world has ended 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 My world has ended my baby's gone
