She's Leaving Home Lyrics - Beatles

Wednesday morning at five o'clock 

As the day begins 

Silently closing her bedroom door 

Leaving the note that she hoped would say more 

She goes down the stairs to the kitchen 

Clutching her handkerchief 

Quietly turning the backdoor key 

Stepping outside, she is free 

She,... (we gave her most of our lives) 

Is leaving (sacrified most of our lives) 

Home (we gave her everything money could buy)

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 (we never thought of ourselves) 

Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves) 

Home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by) 

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 

Greeting a man from the Motortrade 

She (what did we do that was wrong) 

Is Having (we didn't know it was wrong) 

Fun (fun is the one thing that money can't buy) 

Something inside, that was always denied, 

for so many years,. 

She's leaving home
