Where Did He Go

musictimelovesolitude

What happened

To that boy

Who cried all night

With pain

When he broke his arm

And tore your heart in two

With each tear that fell.

Where did he go

That small boy

Who sang so well

And danced

Like Michael Jackson.

Who did he become

When he walked away

To be the man

He wanted to be

And lived a life

Away from you.

Where did he go.

Did he understand

The love you feel

Will never change

And holds you

In its grip

Every single day.

A love that

Never leaves

No matter how old

They are,

You follow

Their journey

No matter how far,

And remain,

Helpless

In the face

Of their indifference,

When they leave

Home alone,

To start a life

On their own,

And stop listening.

Who do they ask

When it is not you.

Who will have

The right answer?

And

What do you do

Then?
