Who Knows Where The Time Goes

Susan Cowsill

Compositor: Sandy Denny

Across the evening sky
All the birds are leaving
But how can they know
It’s time for them to go
Before the winter fire
I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time

For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes

Sad, deserted shore
Your fickle friends are leaving
Ah but then you know
It’s time for them to go
But i will not be here
I have no thought of leaving
I do 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
And i know it will be so
So until it’s time to go
But come the storms of winter
And then the birds in spring again
I have no fear of time

For who knows how my love grows?
And who knows where the time goes?
