The One That Got Away

We've all got that someone

Who slipped right through our hands

An old t-shirt you still wear from time to time

It felt so right, on lonely nights

You wonder what could have been

A heart you can't believe you left behind

I wish you were the one that got away

If you were a memory

I might still be in love with you today

It wouldn't hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache

Oh I wish you were the one that got away

You walk through the door and reach for that first beer

Hit the couch and turn the TV on

And I wake-up beside you and wonder why I'm still here

When everything we used to be is gone

I wish you were the one that got away

If you were a memory

I might still be in love with you today

Wouldn't hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache

Oh I wish you were the one that got away

If you were just a picture

I pulled out of my dresser

To look at every now and then

Something bittersweet

Something I could keep and have fun remembering

It wouldn't hurt this bad

If I was looking back on an old heartache

Oh I wish you were the one that got away

Yeah I wish you were the one that got away
