lyrics

She's been his thing all her life
now closing in on 2 generations
The sweetest words that she heard
were the midwife saying: "love, it's a girl".

"This home makes me ill, this man makes me wild
this child is my salvation"...
It's taken months, but she's planned it well
her deliverance from this hell

Time's come now, don't turn back;
he's out, the bags are packed
Just hail that taxi cab -
you're shaking like a leaf - relief

New life, new song, new breath - gotta keep moving on
New child, fresh start, one chance - gotta keep moving on
He must know by now - gotta keep moving on
He's gotta know by now / he's gotta know ... know about my release.

The sun's high in the sky;
this day I'll memorize;
these faces on the street
know nothing of defeat.


"How did it start, how could you stay?"
you ask me time and again.
So let me put it back to you,
this question lay to rest -

you know that job you couldn't stand,
yet you showed up for years?
If it's so hard to leave your work,
how 'bout the home you've created?

And if I leave it all,
what if they don't believe,
and when I try to call
they send him after me?
