Radio Paradise (mobile)

Across the evening sky, all the birds are leaving
But how can they know it's time for them to go?
Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
For 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
For 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 then the birds in spring again
I have no fear of time
For who knows how my love grows?
And who knows where the time goes?

Spot on. I always have to just stop what I'm doing and take in the moment. (Pardon the split-infinitive.) [ Reply ]

rdo Oct 27, 2012 - 17:48	If I am going to like a song just for the quality of the vocals, then it's almost always because it's a woman singing. No matter how good the voice is, though, I have to like the song for me to enjoy it. A good voice cannot make a bad song good. A bad voice can sing a good song. I like this song, and her voice.

ncollingridge Jul 25, 2012 - 08:06	Peerlessly exquisite. Haunting, yearning, such beautiful phrasing. If ever a song deserved a score of 11 this is the one. [ Reply ]
deanofox Jul 25, 2012 - 08:06	She doesn't like fickle friends and wants to hang around when clearly the party is over... is she planning on murdering him, because she doesn't sound like she's got the horn? [ Reply ]

jgruesen Jul 25, 2012 - 08:04	You need to play Judy Collins' version, I can't say which one I like better. They are both just beautiful vocalists. [ Reply ]

DaveInVA Apr 21, 2012 - 08:11	Its a shame the scale only goes to a 10. This is probably her most well known song but I never get tired tired of hearing it. Judy Collins did a cover of it also before this version of Sandy's was recorded with FC and though its good it just doesn't hold a candle to Sandy..Sandy did other versions of this song including an earlier version with the Strawbs and its excellent also. Just wish they would play more of her here. I've uploaded many of her less heard songs but they never make it into the library. [ Reply ]
Deadwing Apr 21, 2012 - 08:09	I have not heard this for years. What a wonder of a song. [ Reply ]
Boy_Wonder Mar 20, 2012 - 15:29	Not being morbid or such-like - but when the day comes, I'm having this played at my funeral. Either this, or 'Meet on the Ledge' - there won't be a dry eye in the house!! [ Reply ]
