Arms around his shoulder Waving me goodbye The time has come She's leaving home And I didn't realise She's a woman now And I don't know how But inside I have my fears

 

She's growing older And she's changed her hair She's dressed up wild But she's still my child I won't let her slip away On this lonely day I don't know what to say I am lonely without you

 

Should I cry, should I sigh It was always on my mind Now I don't know what to do

 

Should I cry, should I sigh It was always on my mind I'll be lonely without you

 

Hear the wistle blowing Through the wind and rain I was alone And I couldn't cope To see her go away She's a woman now And I don't know how But inside I have my fears

 

Should I cry, should I sigh It was always on my mind Now I don't know what to do

 

Should I cry, should I sigh It was always on my mind I'll be lonely without you
