"The One That Got Away" Lyrics

Remember how you looked at me
There was only one man alive
I was all you ever needed
I could see it in your eyes.
Remember everything you said,
You wore your heart out on your sleeve.
All the words still echo in my head,
I believe.

It's funny how things can change, with one blink of an eye.
It doesn't matter what I say, all you see is goodbye.

I hope you think of me when you're all by yourself,
I hope you scream my name when you're with someone else.
And if you feel the pain that only I can take away,
I hope one day you'll wake up and you'll say I'm the one that got away.

Did I love you way too much,
Please tell me what I did so wrong.
What was the defining moment when you knew that it was gone?

It's funny how your world can change with one drop of a dime.
It doesn't matter what you say, all I hear is goodbye.

And I hope you think of me when you're all by yourself
I hope you scream my name when you're with someone else.
And if you feel the pain that only I can take away,
I hope one day you'll wake up and you'll say I'm the one that got away.

I hope one day you'll open your eyes
And you'll see the biggest mistake you ever made
Was walking out on my, giving up on love.

All I see is goodbye.

I hope you think of me when you're all by yourself
I hope you scream my name when you're with someone else.
And if you feel the pain that only I can wash a way
I hope one day you'll wake up and you'll say, yeah,
I'm the one that got away.

Oh the one that got away.
