[Verse 1]
Weighted by a band of gold
The note she left was three nights old
Waiting on the pillow on the bed
Well, I thought everything was fine
How could I have been so blind?
I can't believe she wrote the words I read

[Chorus]
Where was I when everything went wrong?
Where was I when she was all alone?
I wasn't where I should have been
Now she's the one that's gone
So, where was I when everything went wrong?

[Verse 2]
Looking back it's plain to see
I gave her everything but me
I never took the time to look before
It's all right here in blue and white
She found someone to hold her tight
She only wanted love and nothing more

[Chorus]
Where was I when everything went wrong?
Where was I when she was all alone?
I wasn't where I should have been
Now she's the one that's gone
So, where was I when everything went wrong?
Where was I when everything went wrong?
Where was I when she was all alone?
I wasn't where I should have been
Now she's the one that's gone
So, where was I when everything went wrong?
