Lyrics Barry Manilow

Barry Manilow

Slept Through The End Of The World

I see a ceiling

Four walls

Guess you all went away

An hour ago we were laughing

Lovers and friends

Maybe that was yesterday

So what’s the deal?

Did I miss something real?

When I slept through the end of the world

Nobody answers at all

I call

And there’s nobody there

How long since I’ve lifted my head now

Crawled out of bed

How long since anyone cared?

So now I lose?

Lie alone in the blues?

Cause I slept through the end of the world…

Losing is a story I remember

Alone is a feeling that I know

Been awhile since losing

Shook me

Took me down so low

Yes it has…

How could this ride be all over?

Four walls are all I see

I’m tellin’ the shadows and echoes

Should’a told you

But I was wrapped up in me

So here I wait

Getting’ used to too late

Cause I slept through the end of the world…
