Was it so long ago
When we've first hit the road?
I remember those earliest shows
When we used to go
Was it so long ago
When you said you loved me so?
And we kisses untold
Your love wouldn't have fall
Oh my, where did you go?
Oh, I don't know
You didn't say goodbye
Where did you go?
Oh, you lie, yeah
And you left me wandering, wandering
Your love's just a lie-ie-ie
Everyone said you've found some other guy
Well, all I do is hang my head and cry
Sometimes I moan, sometimes I moan
Where did you go?
Oh, I don't know
You didn't say goodbye
Where did you go?
I don't know, I was left wondering
If her love was just a lie-ie-ie
Everywhere I go people say
Who's that funny guy?
All he does is hangs here down and cry
Sometimes he moans, sometimes he moans
Oh, oh why?
When we used to go
