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
