Lyrics The One That Got Away - Cinerama

The One That Got Away

Last time I saw her we stood arguing in the rain
And I’d been perfectly happy to have never seen her again
But then she walks in this room
I can still smell her perfume
She was wearing Prada with three inch heels
We talked for an hour or so and then there is a lull
That’s when I asked her just how she got to be so beautiful
And then we buy another drink and I say: 'Well, what do you think?'
She just started laughing and said: 'In your dreams!!!
'Remember me?
I’m the one you left behind
For God knows who
Well, did she turn out to be the peak of woman-kind?
Or did you leave her too?'
And then she said: 'Did you really think that I’d give you another chance?
I suppose so, and like if I did, would you give me a second glance?
No, 'cause you’re shallow and you’re cheap
And still waiting to meet somebody better — I know what you do'
'Remember me?
I’m the one you left behind
For God knows who
So, did she turn out to be the peak of woman-kind?
Or did you leave her too?'
