It all looks different
But the streets have the same names
The sidewalks busy
But the faces have all changed
Where’d it go, the place you know.

Chorus
Where’d it go
Your hometown
Where’d it go
Your hometown
Where’d it go
Your hometown, your hometown.

The kids play summer games
Til well after dark
Teenagers go on dates
Then find a place to park
Where’d it go
The place you know.

Chorus

Bridge

The homeless seem to gather
Where they’ve never been before
And the company where so many worked
Has closed and locked the door
But the children in school
They still run and laugh and play
To them, it’s just another day.

The corner drug
Is now a trendy café
You go to where your friends lived
But they’ve all moved away
Where’d it go
It’s the place you know

Chorus
