The One That Got Away

[Intro]
        

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]
                                
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

[Verse 2]
                             
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


[Chorus]
                                
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

[Bridge]

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

[Instr]
        

[Chorus]
                                                 
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

[Outro]
