Across the evening skyall the birds are leaving
But how can they know it’s time for them to go?
Before the winter fireI will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
Saddeserted shoreyour fickle friends are leaving
Ahbut then you know it’s time for them to go
But I will still be hereI 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
I know it will be so until it’s time to go
So 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?
