No Time For Talk Lyrics

Well I read it in town in the melancholy news
The front page story is our love is through
The hand of time is cold
I can't stand to hear the truth
Somehow I won't believe it 'til I've heard it from you

But there's no time for talk
And there's no place for tears
There's no reason to wonder after all of these years
Sure we had some good times
And so who's to blame
It's so hard to tell when you both feel the pain

After the years have come and gone
The struggle to forget you will have just begun
We had our ups and downs
But one thing's for sure
No one will ever love you more

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
