Lyrics
When she kissed me I was born and she said goodbye
And I knew right away I was born to cry
Now I’m happy and the joke’s on her
Cause I found that place for lover’s who wander
Yeah oh oooh
domdom-didit de domdom-didit
de lah lah lah lah
She took my love, said she’s not comin back
So my world and my sky was all turnin black
Now I see the light, I’m wise to her
Cause I found that place for lovers who wander
Yeah whoa whoa oh
dom de whoa oh oh, dom de whoa oh oh
domdom-didit de domdom-didit

A walkin around thinkin about her
Never thought I could live without her
She broke my heart, I really showed it
Look at me now, you’d never know it
Now my story can be told with a smiling face
I’m the luckiest guy in the human race
My dreams have gone for her
Cause I found that place for lover’s who wander
Whoa whoa whoa yeah, she took my love you see
