The One That Got Away

(album: Barry Manilow - 1989)

So you have finally made up your mind
Take one last look at who you're leaving behind
We lost the ending we were too late
But we took time enough to devestate
When people never say things
They lead themselves astray

[Chorus:]
Oh oh oh
The one that got away
Gave me everything
I never had
Oh oh
The one that got away

Gave me everything I never
I had no problems you had no doubts
We were the ones they used to talk about
We saw no windows we had no door
I used to wonder what the shouting's for
When people never say things
They watch their love decay

[Chorus]

When loves take it too far
They bow their heads and say

[Chorus]

One that got away [3x]
