Nina Simone
Who Knows Where the Time Goes?
[Verse 1]
Across the morning sky, all the birds are leaving
How can they know when it's time to go?
Before the winter fire, we'll still be dreaming
I do not count the time
[Chorus]
Who knows where time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
[Verse 2]
Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Oh, but then you know when it's time for them to go
But I will still be here, I have no thought of leaving
I do not count the time
[Chorus]
Who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
But I am not alone as long as my love is near me
And I know it will be so until it's time to go
All through the winter until the birds again return in spring
I do not fear time
[Chorus]
Who knows where time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
