She's Leaving Home

The Beatles>>°<<She's Leaving home

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=hPVdo0p-DrI

Wednesday morning at five o'clock 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 turing the backdoor key
Stepping outside she is free.
She (We gave her most of our lives)
is leaving (Sacraficed most of our lives)
home (We gave her everything money could buy)
She's 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 that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
Daddy our baby's gone.
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly
How could she do this to me.
She (We never though of ourselves)
Is leaving (Never a thought for ourselves) home (We struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone
For so many years. Bye, bye
Friday morning at nine o'clock 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 didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside that was always denied
For so many years. (Bye, Bye)
She's leaving home (bye bye)

thanks dear hAsnAe for this sweet song of the beatles.i personally love it so much for two things.
the first is that it takes me back through the years to the time when i was very young & used to feel like a prince in prison.i used to feel denied many things though i could not express them or tell what they were really; they were just their inside me.
the second but very important thing is about art's role;i think it should be mostly for human sake.an artist should have an all feeling heart and a tender ear to other people's cries & sufferings.joys & aspirations.ups & downs.art should be primarily about the human experience, lived or imagined as the beatles did in this beautiful song.so when we can't talk about our experience or find it hard to communicate our feelings & concerns to those dear ours around us, we just relax finding out that there are some who dedicate their voice & consecrate their art for us.thus we don't feel alone and lonely..

i also find this imagined story very touching : a girl secretly runs away from home ,escaping privately from the custody, the bosom & the warm care of her dutiful family...to me,beside being a face of the generation gap, it only expresses a dream haunting all of us to break the norm..to change the routine .. to choose for ourselves a track not beaten by others..to make others realise that we have our own gift to give and our own identity which perhaps those others fail to recognise or intentionally try to ignore for a well-meant reason or other, and as cats stevens puts it beautifully right in his marvelous song 'father & son' saying: it's not time to make a change...just relax & take it easy …etc.
but we are never convinced .we are always tempted to cross that line.we think that the other side of the field always greener and find it much desired.we feel pressed & hasty like salmon fish relentlessly crossing the sea waters towards the rivers where they are bound to lay down their lives …or like trees in may ripe for leafing… as dear hanane puts it in her wonderful story ‘3indama touriqo lbara’a’.

thanks again.

hello,
Thank you sO sO much Mr Chennouf.really i find you answer full of deep meaning...you're right in each word you said.

i love most of the beatles song but really i was very touched by this one...especially when they say""we gave her everything money could buy""..sometimes parents think that money could buy the most things for making us happy..but surely it can't buy a lot of valuable things we need they can give without using MONEY...
also i like when they say ""she's living home after living alone for many years""
sometimes it is true...when there is a huge space in their relationship it make children feeling they are alone/denied even they are living with their parents...

i wholly agree that ART must be mostly consecrated for human sake 'cause it communicate easily our feeling we find hard to be expressed...sometimes i feel it's rare in nowadays song...

thanks
