Why Did She Go?

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

And the audience is waiting

For the show that won't begin

The artist's waiting at the back door

Because nobody let him in, no, no

Why did she go? She said, there's no tomorrow

How did she know? Did anybody tell her?

I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner

Staring at the wall and she won't be back again

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, no, no

Why did she go? She said there's no tomorrow

How did she know? Did anybody tell her?

I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner

Staring at the wall and she won't be back again

It's time you started to think seriously

About your future and you're dreaming, yeah

She said and didn't leave no room for doubt

That if I took her meaning, there was no longer dreaming

It's just a perfect screaming

Oh my God

Why did she go? She said there's no tomorrow

How did she know? Did anybody tell her?

I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner

Staring at the wall and she won't be back again

Why did she go? She said there's no tomorrow

How did she know? Did anybody tell her?

I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner and I'm waiting

Staring at the wall and I'm waiting

And I'm waiting, waiting, waiting

She's back again, ooh yeah
