Hey, where have you gone?
You used to be the one
That we looked up to
Seemed like nothing could break you down
How high was your price?
Was it worth it?
Nothing in life is a sure bet anyway, you're gone
Guess you weren't here from the start
In the end
Its all a question of heart

Hey, where have you gone?
You used to be the one
That we looked up to
Seemed like nothing could break you down
How high was the price?
And was it worth it?
Nothing in life is a sure bet anyway, you're gone
I guess you were here from the start
In the end
Its all a question of heart

Hey, where did it go?
Everything we fought for
And everything it meant,
Maybe we were just naive
But I still believe
There are only a few things
That really belong to make who I am
Who I was
Who I want to be
Who I want to be

Hey, where have I gone?
I used to be the one
Looking for a hero
In some far off place
Blindly ever forward
Never knowing all along
The truth was right here in my own song

    I think it's about being abandoned or neglected by one or both parents when you were a small child.
    Nothing in life is a sure bet anyway You're gone Guess you weren't here from the start In the end It's all a question of heart. Could be about any sort of betrayal, I suppose. Could be a deserted lover or an abandoned child. Someone who loved you and believed in you and trusted you, but you left anyway.
