  • Dear Amy, see you in September
    Hope that you remember me next year
    Hey Jamie, you've been a great friend to me
    I hope that I'll still see you around here

    'Cause I'm looking through the yearbook
    Then I find that empty space
    There's a name without a picture
    But I can't forget his face

    Tell me, where did he go?
    I want to know
    Where did Johnny go?
    It says "picture unavailable" right here
    More than sad
    It makes me mad to know somebody knows
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go?

    Poor Katie, she won't even speak his name
    None of us will ever be the same
    It's quiet in the halls
    But I hear echoing off the walls
    The rumors of Johnny's mystery
    'Cause I'm looking through the yearbook
    Then I find that empty space
    No, he never wrote me nothing
    But I can't forget his face

    Tell me, where did he go?
    I want to know
    Where did Johnny go?
    It says "picture unavailable" right here
    More than sad
    It makes me mad to know somebody knows
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go?

    Oh, oh, oh
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go?
    Oh, oh, oh
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go?

    Sometimes I think I hear him calling out my name
    Sometimes I wonder if maybe we're to blame
    It's been a year now and a lot of things have changed
    But I keep thinking about Johnny
    I keep turning to that page

    Where did he go?
    I want to know
    Where did he go?
    I want to know

    Oh, oh, oh
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go?
    Oh, oh, oh
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go?

    Oh, oh, oh
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go?
    Oh, oh, oh
    There's a lying in your silence
    Tell me, where did Johnny go? Writer/s: ELLEN SHIPLEY, ISAAC HANSON, TAYLOR HANSON, ZAC HANSON, ZACHARY WALKER HANSON
