She's Leaving Home - Exercises
submitted by Menachem Vinegrad


Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day._________

Silently closing her bedroom door

Leaving the note that she hope would say more

She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching her handkerchief

Quietly turning the backdoor._________

Stepping outside she is free

She (We gave her most of our lives)

Is leaving (Sacrificed most of our lives)

Home (We gave her everything money could _____)

She's leaving home after living ______for so many years. Bye, bye

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown

Picks up the letter that's lying ______

Standing alone at the top of the stairs

She breaks down and cries to her ___________

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 gave her everything money could buy)

She's leaving home after living along for so many years. Bye, bye

Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far _______

Waiting to keep the appointment she made

Meeting a man from a motor trade

She (What did we do that was _________)

Is having (We didn't know it was wrong)

Something inside that was always denied for so many _________

She's leaving home, bye, bye.
