She's leaving home

[00:05.46] Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins

[00:15.82] Silently closing her bedroom door

[00:21.13] Leaving the note that she hoped would say more

[00:25.38] She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching her hankerchief

[00:37.33] Quietly turning the backdoor key

[00:42.38] Stepping outside she is free

[00:46.63] &&&

[00:47.96] She (We gave her most of our lives)

[00:53.00] Is leaving (Sacraficed most of our lives)

[00:58.85] Home (We gave her everything money could buy)

[01:04.16] She's leaving home after living alone

[01:08.57] For so many years (Bye bye)

[01:12.29] &&&

[01:13.88] Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown

[01:24.51] Picks up the letter that's lying there

[01:29.82] Standing alone at the top of the stairs

[01:34.87] She breaks down and cries to her husband "Daddy our baby's gone

[01:46.82] Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?

[01:51.87] How could she do this to me?"

[01:56.65] &&&

[01:57.98] She (We never thought of ourselves)

[02:02.49] Is leaving (Never a thought for ourselves)

[02:08.34] Home (We struggled hard all our lives to get by)

[02:13.81] She's leaving home after living alone

[02:18.59] For so many years (Bye bye)

[02:21.78] &&&

[02:23.37] Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away

[02:34.26] Waiting to keep the appointment she made

[02:39.84] Meeting a man from the motor trade

[02:44.35] &&&

[02:45.42] She (What did we do that was wrong)

[02:49.93] Is having (We didn't know it was wrong)

[02:55.78] Fun (Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)

[03:01.09] Something inside that was always denied

[03:05.61] For so many years (Bye bye)

[03:08.79] &&&

[03:11.98] She's leaving home

[03:16.23] Bye bye
