The One That Got Away

The One That Got Away (C. Cook)

GIRL YOU KNOW WE'VE BOTH HAD OUR UPS AND DOWNS
SOMEHOW WE MADE IT THROUGH ALL THOSE INS AND OUTS
LITTLE THINGS MEAN SO MUCH IN SO MANY WAYS
BEFORE YOU START WALKIN' I JUST WANNA SAY

YOU'VE BEEN GOOD TO ME AS A WOMAN CAN BE
I CAN'T STOP YOU FROM WALKIN' AWAY
GIVE ME A CHANCE TO MAKE THE WRONG THINGS RIGHT TODAY
BECAUSE I NEED YOU TO STAY

IF YOU LEAVE ME I'LL GO CRAZY
SO WHY DON'T YOU HANG AROUND
WAS IT SOMETHING I SAID BABY
THAT LEFT YOU FEELIN' DOWN
IF THERE'S SOMETHING I CAN SAY TO YOU
TO MAKE YOU WANNA STAY
I CAN'T LET YOU BE THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY

THIS SILLY LIFE THAT WE ALL LIVE IS SOMETIMES HARD TO TAKE
WE'VE GOT TO TAKE THE TIME TO BEND IN ORDER NOT TO BREAK
WELL GOOD-BYE BABY I HATE TO SEE YOU GO
BEFORE YOU WALK OUT THAT DOOR I JUST WANNA SAY
