The One That Got Away Songtext
von April Smith and the Great Picture Show

I will always be here; you got me in chains
You′ll never let me be; you always will remain
In the face of another
You know what you've done
You know very well
You set a trap for me and baby, I fell
For the love of you, lover

But don′t turn around
There's nothing left to say, and I'll let you be
The one that got away, and you can cut that string
We′ll quit these games we play, and I′ll let you be
The one that got away


I should have known better: what a fool to be so blind
'Cause now all I′ve got here is the mess you left behind
And the memory of a promise gone bad. Now all the books have been read
The case has been closed: all fingers point to you
And everybody knows
So how's it feel to be the one who′s been had?

Well, don't turn around
There′s nothing you can say, and I'll let you be
The one that got away, and you can cut that string
We'll quit these games we play, and I′ll let you be
The one that got away

Don′t turn around
There's nothing left to say, and I′ll let you be
The one that got away, and you can cut that string
We'll quit these games we play, and I′ll let you be the one that got away
The moment I turn around
You'll want me back right away, and I′ll always be
The one that got away
