This Place Lyrics

This was the place, the place to be

The place to see and to be seen

We thought we were the kings and the queens

As we strutted around like we were something to see

This place was filled with color and life

It was a carnival almost every night

We were having the times of our lives

Just taking it one day at a time

Where have you gone, my little one?

You took with you all the sun

When they said your day was done

A chapter of my life was gone

Now the silence echoes in my ears

The emptiness is all I hear

I wander through your vacant halls

Then once again the memories call

I kissed my first girl over there

She was cute and sweet with curly hair

What happened to her, I can't recall

We were just kids after all

This place was filled with color and life

It was a carnival almost every night

These were the times of our lives

We just didn't know it at the time

Where have you gone, my little one?

You took with you all the fun

Now that your day is done

Another piece of my life is gone
