The One That Got Away

(álbum: Get Lucky - 1990)

It's more than I can handle,
much more than I can take,
You never feel the fire
'til you lose the love you make,
I should've seen it coming,
now that I'm in deeper than I've ever been,
she's sounding like a stranger,
and I'm afraid I've done it to myself again, oh...

[Chorus:]
Sitting here all through the night,
losing this fight,
don't let her be the one that got away,
things I should have said keep running through my head,
and I'm the fool that's missing her today,
I can't believe this is happening to me,
can't let the girl turn out to be the one that got away.

Long distance conversations,
a thousand miles from home,
don't satisfy the hunger
when you're feeling so alone,
now it may be too late,
she won't forget the way I treated her,
could've been so easy
all I had to do was
say I needed her, oh...

[Chorus]

I knew there'd be trouble,
the day I left town,
I never thought this could take me
take me down, oh ...

[Chorus]
