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
|
