Where Do All My Friends Go - Oingo Boingo

Where Do All My Friends Go Lyrics

When lightning strikes and we are sleeping
Tell me where my friends go
When everyone around is dreaming
Tell me where my friends go
When children aren't children no more
Tell me where my friends go
When parents aren't behind the door
Tell me where my friends go
When football's over and the beer's gone
Tell me where my friends go
When TV set no longer turns on
Tell me where my friends goIf I could float and drift forever
Tell me where my friends go
I'd join the shattered dreams together
Tell me where my friends go
I'd spy upon the disbelievers
Tell me where my friends to
And scatter them into the seasons

Tell me where my friends go
When winter comes I'll keep on moving
Tell me where my friends go
To fill the cup of understanding
Tell me where my friends go
I'd fly, tell me where my friends go
To hidden places in the sky
Tell me where my friends go
My hesitation
Is strong today
The indications
All point away
To somethin' better
For everyone
Has something gone astrayI'll follow you until I die
Tell me where my dreams go
With outstretched arms into the sky
Tell me where my dreams go
When all is said and come undone
Tell me where my dreams go
The words have come the words have come
Tell me where my dreams go
We'll chase the ghosts into the shadows
Tell me where my dreams go
The spectres watch through every window
Tell me where my dreams go
We'll run like dogs and jump the fences
Tell me where my dreams go
And howl at men behind their faces
Tell me where my dreams go
We'll bark at night and wake the neighbors
Tell me where my dreams go
And tell the world of our adventures
Tell me where my dreams go
My hesitation
Is strong today
The indications
All point away
To somethin' better
For everyone
Has something gone astrayMy revelations
Have lost control
My better judgment
Has gone away
Our evolution
Is full of holes
Has something gone astray
