I was left by the roadside all alone
The time of no reply is calling me to stay
To leave there is no way
I looked behind as I heard a sigh
And no one asks why I am standing here
They would keep their dreams till another day
Time goes by from year to year
There's no hello and no goodbye
The trees on the hill had nothing to say
I turned to speak as they went by
For this was the time of no reply
But I have my answers as I look to the sky
The time of no reply is calling me to stay
I looked behind as I heard a sigh
The sun went down and the crowd went home
And Autumn reached for her golden crown
This is the time of no reply
Summer was gone and the heat died down
But this was the time of no reply
So they stood and thought and wondered why
There is no hello and no goodbye
But this was the time of no reply
To leave there is no way
