Where I Ought To Be (1962)
I got your wedding invitation
I’m surprised you thought of me
But I don’t believe your wedding
Is just where I ought to be
For you put your arms around her
Kiss her lips so tenderly
As she’s standing there beside you
That is where I ought to be
Like a fool I introduced you
I said baby meet my friend
Never thought I could lose you
But I lost you there and then
I took the diamond rind you gave me
Threw it way out in the sea
And I had an awful feeling
That’s just where I ought to be
Like a fool I introduced you
I said baby meet my friend
Never thought I could lose you
But I lost you there and then
I took the diamond rind you gave me
Threw it way out in the sea
And I had an awful feeling
That’s just where I ought to be
