Who Knows Where the Time Goes

eva cassidy - 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 its 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?
