E                     A2                   E    A2 
Across the morning sky all the birds are leaving 
 E                 A2                        E  A2 
But how can they know it's time for them to go? 
  F#m                G#m A                  G#m   A 
Before the winter's fire, I will still be dreamin' 
                      E 
I have no thought of time 
 
CHORUS: 
     B                     A 
For who knows where the time goes? 
  E                  A    F#m   A  E   E  A2  E  A2 
Who knows where the time goes? 
 
Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving 
Ah and yet they 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 ...CHORUS 
 
And I am not alone, while my love is near 
And I know it will be so until it's time to go 
So count the storms of winter and then the birds in spring again 
I have no fear of time 
 
CHORUS #2: 
For who knows how my love grows? 
And who knows where the time goes?
