| I still really really love you
|
| Yea…
|
| I still really really need you
|
| Oh oh oh
|
| (Hook)
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| I know… she’s searching for me
|
| But I… But I…
|
| I don’t know if she’ll take me back this time
|
| This time…
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| I’ve changed
|
| I know you don’t believe
|
| And it doesn’t matter now
|
| That you’ve moved on
|
| Cause my feelings are the same
|
| But at least I know he keeps you smiling
|
| When I’m with her, sometimes when all‘s said and done
|
| I can’t help but look up
|
| And think about when we first hooked up
|
| I know what love is
|
| You showed me what love is
|
| (Hook)
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| I know… she’s searching for me
|
| But I… But I…
|
| I don’t know if she’ll take me back this time
|
| (If you could only feel what I feel)
|
| This time…
|
| (Just for a second)
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| (You'd understand)
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| Empty rum bottle next to a candlelight with a dying flame
|
| Half-written love letter tryin to describe my pain
|
| Unable to think clear, teardrops hit the pages making the ink smear |
| I told you the truth from the get go, you chose to ignore it
|
| Refusing to let go, this situation I was in was a blowing whirlwind
|
| Wasn’t fit to take of myself, let alone a girlfriend
|
| You said it don’t matter, material’s irrelevant
|
| And I couldn’t believe it, could it be that she’s heaven-sent?
|
| You was different from the average chick
|
| Cus you had character and wits that complimented your ass and tits
|
| Took me into your home, the second I met your moms
|
| Caught an odd vibe, yes she thought that I meant you harm
|
| But I love you cus you stuck around, said you’d never doubt me
|
| Regardless of what people around you said about me
|
| Whenever we’d you’d lay your head on my chest
|
| I’d watch you go to sleep and listen to every breath you take
|
| And I was certain that the reason we met was fate
|
| Lookin back it hurts cus I deeply regret mistakes
|
| As a man I should’ve put an end to it
|
| When I noticed that the partying got out of hand
|
| Histories of drug usage, we both escaped
|
| Like Rihanna we fell in love in a hopeless place |
| Knew that it wouldn’t work, I was too reluctant
|
| To let go, said my lifestyle’s too destructive
|
| And I know what goes up must come down
|
| Like about a rocket, didn’t know how to knock it
|
| I fucked up, wanted to make you my wife
|
| Now she left me and I’m stuck here paying the price
|
| Cause of you I’ve been through the ringer
|
| Was a fool for letting you slip through my fingers
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| (Hook)
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| I know… she’s searching for me
|
| But I… But I…
|
| I don’t know if she’ll take me back this time
|
| (If you could only feel what I feel)
|
| This time…
|
| (Just for a second)
|
| She’s the one that got away
|
| (You'd understand)
|
| She’s the one that got away |
