The One That Got Away

Everybody sees her
I used to know her
But I don't anymore.

Things used to be better
Till a little while ago
I wish things were like before.

And oh I know
I think it's too late
I'll never forget
The first date
Sometimes you can't change what's meant to be
Sometimes I wonder what it woulda been like for her to be with me
Though I tried and tried to get her to stay
She's the one that got away.

She's so close
But yet so far
And I wonder why.

Sometimes it makes me wanna cry
I blew my load
Before we tried.

And oh I know
I think it's too late
I'll never forget
The first date
Sometimes you can't change what's meant to be
Sometimes I wonder what it woulda been like for her to be with me
Though I tried and tried to get her to stay
She's the one that got away.
