The One That Got Away Songtext

von Loverboy

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 believed

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 me
Giving up on me

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 wash away
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
