Across the mornin' sky
all the birds are leavin'
Oh how can they know
it's time for them to go
Before the winter fire
we'll still be dreamin'
I do not count the time
Who knows
where the time goes
Who knows
where the time goes
Sad deserted shore
your fickle friends are leavin'
Ah but then you know
it's time for them to go
But I will still be here
I have no thought of leavin'
I do not count the time
Who knows
where the time goes
Who knows
where the time goes
And I am not alone
while my love is leavin' me
And I know it will be so
till it's time to go
So come the storms of winter
and then the birds
of spring again
I do not fear the time
Who knows how
my love grows
Who knows
where the time goes
