Who Knows Where The Time Goes
Nina Simone · Emergency Ward / It Is Finished / Black Gold [2002]
Across the morning sky, all the birds are leaving
How can they know that it's time to go
Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming
I do not count the time
Who knows where time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
[Incomprehensible]
Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Oh, but then you know that 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
Who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
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
After the winter until the birds again return in spring
And I do not fear time
Who knows where time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
How can they know that it's time to go
Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming
I do not count the time
Who knows where time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
[Incomprehensible]
Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Oh, but then you know that 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
Who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
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
After the winter until the birds again return in spring
And I do not fear time
Who knows where time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
