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 times we've had together
While our hearts were young


* I'm a-walking in the rain
Tears are falling
And I feel in pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder (I I I I wonder)
Why (why, why, why, why why)
You went away )She ran away
Yes, I wonder where you will stay )Yes, I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway )My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway


* Repeat
Run, run, run, run, runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
