Queen of the Spring Ball

The morning that our Sally left
Was a sad day for us all
She took a train to nowhere fast
Left a message down the hall
The sheet was damp and you know she’d cried
As she stumbled through the words
Something within had slowly died
And she just couldn’t get heard
It wasn’t just the pregnancy
But our disappointed smiles
It wasn’t just our leniency
But the regret that carved our eyes
CH
You
Were the Queen of the Spring Ball
What happened to those dreams?
Have you noticed?
They wither like all flowers
As it seems
Like the flowers
On the stairway
When you walked down
Smiling blissfully
Oh so radiantly
Here’s to apologies
From a troubled mind
When all we did was fail to see
The fear that lurked behind
Behind the blinds of convenience
Of education’s toll
The powers of obedience
Can break you as a whole
CH
Oh Sally, I understand
That you had to leave
But Sally
Could you tell me please???
Where’s the Baby? (repeat)
Where’s my baby?
