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 believe.
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 my, giving up on love.
All I 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 wash a way,
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.
