As I walk along I wonder
What went wrong with our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of
The things we've done together
While our hearts were young
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, I wo-wo-wo-wo-wonder
Why, why-why-why-why-why she run away
And I wonder, where she will stay
My little runaway, run-run-run-run runaway
