Why Did She Go?

1. Mother's waiting in the kitchen

The elephant's waiting in the zoo

The teacher's waiting in the classroom

And I am waiting here for you

2. And the audience is waiting

for the show that won't begin

The artist's waiting at the backdoor

because nobody let him in

R: Why did she go?

She said there's no tomorrow

How did she know?

Did anybody tell her?

I can't explain

Am

I'm sitting in the corner

Staring at the wall

And she won't be back again

3. Louise was waiting for a lover

First he paid and then he came

Now she's cooking for a baby

The client wasn't seen again

R: Why did she go...

*: It's time you started

Gm C7

to think seriously about

Your future and your dreaming

She said and didn't leave no room for doubt

Cm

That if I took her meaning

There was no longer dreaming

It's just a perfect screaming

R: Why did she go...

She's back again
