Annotationen

Wegweisendes Clavioline-Solo, gespielt von Max Crook, der sein Selmer Instrument ausbaute und «Musitron» nannte. Dies ist eines der frühesten Beispiele elektronischer Klänge in der Popmusik. Bemerkenswert auch der meisterhafte Falsetto-Gesang im Refrain.

Lyrics

As I walk along, I wonder A what went wrong whith our love A love that was so strong And as I still walk on I think of the thing's we've done Together, while our hearts were young I'm a walkin' in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain A wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder Why a why why why why why She ran away And I wonder where she will stay My little runaway My run run run run runaway [Solo] I'm a walkin' in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain A wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder Why a why why why why why She ran awayway And I wonder where she will stay My little runaway A run run run run Runaway [Coda]
