Wednesday morning at five o'clock |
| [00:11.200] |
as the day begins |
| [00:17.170] |
Silently closing her bedroom door |
| [00:22.910] |
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more |
| [00:27.740] |
She goes downstairs to the kitchen |
| [00:33.000] |
clutching her handkerchief |
| [00:40.000] |
Quietly turning the back door key |
| [00:45.020] |
Stepping outside she is free |
| [00:49.090] |
|
| [00:50.910] |
She (we gave her most of our lives) |
| [00:55.810] |
is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives) |
| [01:02.030] |
home (we gave her everything money could buy) |
| [01:08.040] |
She's leaving home after living alone for |
| [01:14.200] |
so many years (bye bye) |
| [01:17.790] |
|
| [01:18.230] |
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown |
| [01:25.450] |
Picks up the letter that's lying there |
| [01:34.170] |
Standing alone at the top of the stairs |
| [01:40.280] |
She breaks down and cries to her husband |
| [01:45.700] |
Daddy our baby's gone |
| [01:52.040] |
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly |
| [01:58.620] |
How could she do this to me |
| [02:03.380] |
|
| [02:04.430] |
She (We never thought of ourselves) |
| [02:09.590] |
is leaving (never a thought for ourselves) |
| [02:15.460] |
home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by) |
| [02:21.680] |
She's leaving home after living alone for |
| [02:27.310] |
so many years (bye bye) |
| [02:29.990] |
|
| [02:31.270] |
Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away |
| [02:42.860] |
Waiting to keep the appointment she made |
| [02:48.260] |
Meeting a man from the motor trade |
| [02:53.590] |
|
| [02:54.270] |
She (what did we do that was wrong) |
| [02:59.360] |
is having (we didn't know it was wrong) |
| [03:04.970] |
fun (fun is the one thing that money can't buy) |
| [03:11.010] |
Something inside that was always denied for |
| [03:15.900] |
so many years (bye bye) |
| [03:22.100] |
She's leaving home (bye bye) |
| [03:30.780] |
