lyrics

These are not faces that I would recognize
Maybe I knew them once, now they wear a disguise
Could be the lighting, could be the clothes they wear
Could be they just got old and they no longer care
What are their stories
Who are their husbands and wives
They are all strangers lving out strangers' lives

The last of the beautiful people
They are gone, gone, gone
Oh the beautiful people into oblivion
The last of the beautiful people
They are done, done, done
Oh the beautiful people, now there are none

These are not people that I've continued to know
If I saw them on the street I would not say hello
They were not there for me when my daughter was born
Never knew my dad died, never saw me mourn
What do they dream of and did those dreams come true
Do they think of me and what would they think if they do

What happened to you
Where did you go
When did you fade
Where is your glow
Start out so strong and so full of youth
But life is so cruel and that's the hard truth

Give it back
