Where The Children Have Gone

Little girl playthings, stuffed toys and dolls,

little girl pictures hung on the walls, now they're just mem'ries gathering dust

Remember the time when they meant so much

Then she starts talking to boys on the phone

Where has the little girl gone? It's the miracle part of the overall plan

Girl becomes woman and boy becomes man

Then they fall in love and have kids of their own

That's where the children have gone

Old model trains and old fishing poles

Little league trophies and Lord only knows

Now in the closet, beginning to rust

Remember the time when they meant so much

Then he's off doing things on his own,

Where has the little boy gone?

It's the miracle part of the overall plan

Girl becomes woman and boy becomes man

Then they fall in love and have kids of their own

That's where the children have gone
