Woke up and wished that I was dead

With an aching in my head 

I lay motionless in bed

I thought of you and where you'd gone

and let the world spin madly on



Everything that I said I'd do 

Like make the world brand new

And take the time for you

I just got lost and slept right through the dawn 

And the world spins madly on



I let the day go by 

I always say goodbye

I watch the stars from my window sill 

The whole world is moving and I'm standing still



Woke up and wished that I was dead 

With an aching in my head 

I lay motionless in bed

The night is here and the day is gone

And the world spins madly on



I thought of you and where you'd gone 

And the world spins madly on
