The Man That Got Away Songtext
von Renée Zellweger

The night is bitter
The stars have lost their glitter
The wind grows colder
And suddenly you′re older
And all because of the man that got away

No more his eager call
The writing's on the wall
The dreams you dreamed have all
Gone astray

The man that won you
Has run off and undone you
That great beginning
Has seen the final inning
Don′t know what happened, it's a crazy game


No more that old-time thrill
For you've been through the mill
And never a new love
Will be the same

Good riddance, goodbye
Every trick of his you′re onto
But fools will be fools
And where′s gone to?

The road gets rougher
It's lonelier and tougher
With hope you burn up
Tomorrow he might turn up
There′s just no let up
The livelong night and day

Ever since this world began
There's nothing sadder than
Sadder than a one-man woman looking for the man
That got away

The man that got away
