John Anderson - Where The Children Have Gone lyrics

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
