The One That Got Away

Thinkin' about the time I met you,
I never thought I could forget you
But now I see you were foolin' me.
Again and again I tried to show you
Again and again and I'm still here for you,
Patiently. You still don't see
You may turn to find a heart of stone,
You may turn to find this bird has flown.
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the one you need today
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the same one that you need today
(Livin' without?) you may not see me
And may the good Lord please believe me
I've been burned, my lesson learned,
You can replace your mixed emotions,
But you can't replace what's already broken
My, my, my, don't waste my time
One day I may choose to walk alone,
You may turn to find this bird has flown.
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the one you need today
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the same one you need today
Open up your eyes and see me, I am someone new
I'm not just some old fool who fell in love with you
One day I may choose to walk alone,
You may turn to find this bird has flown.
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the one you need today
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the same one that you need today
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the one you need today
I'm not gonna be there when you realize
That the one that got away is the same one that you need today
