The One That Got Away
Mmmmmm yeah
Oh oh
I stood by the exit door
Of the hotel cafe
He was playing with his band
I've always been a sucker
Had a weakness for a boy
With a guitar
And a drink in his hand
His words were like heaven in my hurricane
My knees buckled under
I thought everyone was watching me
Watching you save my life with the song
You were mine
In the back of my mind
Oh just for one night
Just for a while
There's always one that gets away
The one that sneaks up on you
That slips away
Two weeks later i was
Sitting in his apartment
He was making cappuchino
I said what kind of man makes cappuchino
We laughed We laughed We laughed
We laughed 'til tears ran down my face
Oh but my man you're someone elses man
And that ain't the man that i want
But you keep drawing me in
With those big brown lion eyes
You'll always be mine
In the back of my mind
Oh we had a night
Just a little wine
There's always one that gets away
The one that sneaks up on you
that slips away
In a closed off corner of my heart
Yeah yeah yeah
I'll always see your face
The one that got away
The one that got away
Oh the one that got away
Oh the one that got away
Oh the one that got away
Yeah yeah
Oh oh oh oh
Yeah yeah
Oh
I'm not a victim of cliches
I don't believe in soul mates
Happy endings only one
Oh and I met you and all that changed
I had a taste
and you're still sitting
On the tip of my tongue
You were mine
Somewhere in time
I'll look for you first
In my next life
There's always one that gets away
The one that sneaks up on you
that slips away
Slips away
In a closed off corner of my heart
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I I'll always see your face
The one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
Oh the one that got away
The one that got away
Oh the one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
Yeah yeah
Oh oh yeah
The one that got away
