The end of the world - Song and Lyrics.
"The End of the
World" was written by Arthur Kent and Sylvia
Dee; the latter drew on her sorrow from her father's death.
Davis recorded her version on
June 8, 1962 at the RCA Studios in Nashville, produced by Chet Atkins, and
featuring Floyd
Cramer.[1] Released by RCA
Records in
December 1962, "The End of the World" peaked in March 1963 at No. 2
on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 2
on the Billboard country singles,[2] No. 1 on Billboard's easy listening, and
No. 4 on Billboard's rhythm
and blues.[3] It is the first, and, to date, only time
that a song cracked the Top 10 on all four Billboard charts.[citation needed] Billboard ranked the record as the No. 3 song of
1963.[4]
In the Skeeter Davis version,
After she sings the whole song through in the key of B-Flat, The song goes up
by a half step to the key of B, where Skeeter speaks the fist two lines of the
final stanza, before singing the rest of the stanza, ending the song.
Davis's recording of "The
End of the World" was played at Atkins's funeral in an instrumental by Marty
Stuart, and at Davis's own funeral at theRyman

The End Of The World Lyrics
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 is 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
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye.
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 is 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
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye.

1955.[1]

Sweet, sweet memories you gave-a me
You can't beat the memories you gave-a me
Take one fresh and tender kiss
Add one stolen night of bliss
One girl, one boy
Some grief, some joy
Add one stolen night of bliss
One girl, one boy
Some grief, some joy
Memories are made of this
Don't forget a small moonbeam
Fold in lightly with a dream
Your lips and mine
Two sips of wine
Fold in lightly with a dream
Your lips and mine
Two sips of wine
Memories are made of this
Then add the wedding bells
One house where lovers dwell
Three little kids for the flavor
One house where lovers dwell
Three little kids for the flavor
Stir carefully through the days
See how the flavor stays
These are the dreams you'll savor
See how the flavor stays
These are the dreams you'll savor
With his blessings from above
Serve it generously with love
One man, one wife
One love through life
Serve it generously with love
One man, one wife
One love through life
Memories are made of this
Memories are made of this
Memories are made of this
