TimeOfNoReply

Summer was gone and the heat died down

And autumn reached for her golden crown

I looked behind as I heard a sigh

But this was the time of no reply

The sun went down and the crowd went home

I was left by the roadside all alone

I turned to speak as they went by

But this was the time of no reply

The time of no reply is calling me to stay

There is no hello and no goodbye

To leave there is no way

The trees on the hill had nothing to say

They would keep their dreams till another day

So they stood and thought and wondered why

For this was the time of no reply

Time goes by from year to year

And no one asks why I am standing here

But I have my answer as I look to the sky

This is the time of no reply

The time of no reply is calling me to stay

There's no hello and no goodbye

To leave there is no way

Summer was gone and the heat died down

And autumn reached for her golden crown

I looked behind as I heard a sigh

But this was the time of no reply
