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 TIME GOES?

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 GOESH?UT

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?
