The One Who Got Away Lyrics

I always seem to be

In the wrong place at the wrong time

I can't get you off my mind

Everything has got me feeling so blue

But I'm still head over heels for you

When you were with me

I was richer than the sea

The moon and the stars would envy me

Now I don't know what I am supposed to do

But I'm still head over heels for you

I chased you all the way through the big city

You kept me searching all night long in the rain

Oh the lights were bright and the streets were busy

But that's not where I belong

So I reckoned I would hitch me a ride down south

As soon as those words came out of my mouth

I turned around and what I saw it shook me to the core

That long flowing hair like I've never seen before

Sweet lord have mercy my jaw was on the floor

And my heartfelt blues was headed for the door

Alright

Well I thought it'd last forever but it looks like now we're through

And I'm still head over heels for you

You know I'm still in love with you
