Good day Adina. I am sure there are other ways to do this but when I want to 
find out where I am in a song in regards to timing I press the left bracket 
either once or twice.  The brackets allow you to mark points in a track and 
will also show you the time where the curser is placed. so, if your listing to 
a song and you press p for pause you can then hit the left bracket and you 
should see a dialog box showing you where the curser is in the song and also 
allow you to change it. You can also use the tool bars to see position 
beginning and ending of a track
