Who Knows Where the Time Goes
Embracing the Mystery of Time's Passage
Lyrics
Across the morning sky all the birds are leaving
Observing birds leaving in the morning sky.
But how can they know it's time for them to go?
Wondering how the birds sense when it's time to depart.
Before the Winter's fire
Before the warmth and comfort of winter.
I will still be dreaming
Despite the approaching winter, still holding onto dreams.
I have no thought of time
Not preoccupied with the concept of time.
For who knows where the time goes?
Pondering the uncertainty and unpredictability of time.
Who knows where the time goes?
Reiterating the uncertainty surrounding time.
Sad deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Reflecting on a desolate shore where companions depart.
Ah and yet they know it time for them to go
Recognizing the departure despite their awareness.
But I will still be here
Committing to staying despite others leaving.
I have no thought of leaving
No intention of departing.
I do not count the time
Not concerned with keeping track of time.
For who knows where the time goes?
Continuing contemplation about the mystery of time.
Who knows where the time goes?
Repeating the uncertainty about the passage of time.
And I am not alone while my love is near
Feeling accompanied by love's presence.
And I know it will be so until it's time to go
Expecting love to endure until parting.
So count the storms of winter
Considering the challenges of winter storms.
And then the birds in spring again
Anticipating the return of birds in spring.
I have no fear of time
Unafraid of the passing of time.
For who knows how my love grows?
Reflecting on the unknown growth of love.
And who knows where the time goes?
Pondering the mysterious nature of time and love.
For who knows where the time goes?
Reiterating uncertainty about the passage of time.
Who knows where the time goes?
Repeating the question about the elusive nature of time.
