Hold back the rushing minutes make the wind stand still Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill Dry up the raindrops then hold back the sun the world has ended my baby's gone I'll wake up sometime in the night and realize you're gone I toss and turn and stare at darkness waiting for the dawn I try to tell my lonely heart we'll make it all alone But still the world has ended my baby's gone Hold back the rushing minutes make the wind stand still Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill Dry up the raindrops push back the dawn the world has ended my baby's gone Don't they know the world has ended my baby's gone
