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
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
to think seriously about
Your future and your dreaming
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
R: Why did she go...
She's back again
