Who Knows Where the Time Goes

by Barbara Dickson

on Dark End of the Street (1995), The Collection (2007)

Across the evening sky
All the birds are leaving
But how can they know it's time for them to go
Beside the winter's fire
I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
And 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 still be here
I have no thought of leaving
I do not count the time
And 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 all the birds of spring again
I have no fear of time
And who knows where the time goes
Who knows where the time goes
