She's Leaving Home lyrics by The Beatles
Wednesday morning atfive o'clock as the day begins
Silently closing
her bedroom door
Leaving a note that
she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to
the kitchen
clutching her handkerchief
Quietly turning
the backdoor key
Stepping outside she is free
She
is leaving
home
She's leaving home
after living alone
for so many years
Father snores as his wife
gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter
that's lying there
Standing alone at
the top of the stairs
She breaks down and
cries to her husband
Daddy, our baby's gone
Why would she treat
us so thoughtlessly
How could she do this to me
She
is leaving
home
She's leaving home
after living alone
for so many years
Friday morning at nine
o'clock she is far away
Waiting to keep the
appointment she made
Meeting a man
from the motor trade
She
is having
fun
Something inside that
was always denied
for so many years
She's leaving home
