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.
