WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT SHOP?

I remember when that post office was situated there 
Right in the middle of the market square 
Like all shops they disappear and go 
Causing sadness to appear like a crushing blow 

I remember where that bank used to be 
It's now a fast food restaurant as far as I can see 
What of the record shops that were part of my youth 
Long since gone part of a terrible truth 

The high street shops unfortunately change 
People of my generation find it strange 
It's sad that these shops are there no more 
They will never return again that's for sure
