Lyrics

As I walk along, I wonder

A-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

A-while our hearts were young

I'm a-walkin' in the rain

Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain

A-wishin' you were here by me

To end this misery

And I wonder

I wah-wah, wah-wah, wonder

Why

Why, why, why, why, why

She ran away

And I wonder

Where she will stay

My little runaway

A-run, run, run, run, runaway

I'm a-walkin' in the rain

Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain

A-wishin' you were here by me

To end this misery

And I wonder

I wah-wah, wah-wah, wonder

Why

Why, why, why, why, why

She ran away

And I wonder a-where she will stay

My little runaway

A-run, run, run, run, runaway

A-run, run, run, run, runaway

A-run, run, run, run, runaway
