The One That Got Away Songtext
von Barry Manilow

So you have finally made up your mind
Take one last look at who you′re leave behind
We lost the ending, we were too late
But we took time enough to devastate

When people never say things
They lead themselves astray

Oh oh oh
The one that got away
Gave me everything I never had
Oh oh
The one that got away
Gave me everything I never


I had no problems you had no doubts
We were the ones they used to talk about
We saw no windows, we had no door
I used to wonder what the shouting's for

When people never say things
They watch their love decay

Oh oh oh
The one that got away
Gave me everything, I never had

When lovers take it too far
They bow their heads and say

Oh oh oh
The one that got away
Gave me everything I never had
Oh oh
The one that got away
Gave me everything I never had

The one that got away
The one that got away
