Who Knows Where The Time Goes

Across the purple sky

All the birds are leaving

But how can they know

It was time for them to go?

By the winter fire

I will still be dreaming

I did not count the time

For who knows where the time goes?

Who knows where the time goes?

Sad, deserted shore

Your fickle friends are leaving

Oh, but then you know

It was time for them to go

But I will still be here

I have no thought of leaving

I did not count the time

For who knows where the time goes?

Who knows where the time goes?

And I am not alone while my love is near me

I know it will be so until it's time to go

Oh the storms in winter

And then the birds in spring again

I did not count the time

For who knows where the time goes?

And who knows where the time goes?

Who knows where the time goes?
