*sob* so my big sister is leaving for texas tomorrow, then to washington a week after to leave me for 4 years. and im a wreck. i left my home crying a bawling the entire way to school. i should have stayed longer, but i had to leave or id cry right there. but yeah. i said goodbye. and walked out the door and cried. i cried like ive never cried before. (except for when my cat died. it was so sad. i was so sad. i was remembering all the fights the good times, and the bads times. and all the fun memories at the beach and the park and camping and playing and eating and all that good. stuff. my sister and i have a very different relationship than most sisters. we're..i dunno. weird. but we get along sometimes. a lot more not that we live away. but i'm still gonna miss her, just because i know shes not just 20 miles away in SF. i'm so sad. i was sobbing on the phone to gregory. he felt so bad, and i couldnt blame him. im such a sap. but i know i'll miss my sister even though i wont say it and i guess i l-l-lo-ve her too. man.. i dont think i have ever said that about her. but its just a given. our relationship is so different. i dunno. we just know. *sigh* shes leaving home.

Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begings
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)
