Wednesday morning at five oclock as the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching her hankerchief
Quietly turning the backdoor key
Stepping outside she is free
She 
Is leaving 
Home 
Shes leaving home after living alone
For so many years. Bye, bye
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter thats lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
Daddy our babys gone
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly
How could she do this to me
She 
Is leaving 
Home 
Shes leaving home after living alone
For so many years. Bye, bye
Friday morning at nine oclock she is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade
She What did we do that was wrong
Is having We didnt know it was wrong fun
Fun is the one thing that money cant buy
Something inside that was always denied
For so many years. Bye, bye
Shes leaving home. Bye, bye
