One That Got Away lyrics

[Spoken:]

Yeah

This is for all those people

That don't understand

The kinda love I have for him

There's some things you just can't change

Just can't fight

Just listen, I'll tell you my life

What I gotta do to get it through to you

That I'm the only one who can love you like I do

Seems like I try to get away

Trying almost every day

To find a way to you

But you walk away

You turn your face

It's like when I'm there

You don't know my name

And I'm kind of scared

Cause if I try again

I'm afraid that if I do

I'll never get a chance

[Chorus]

If I come to close would you pull away?

Will you dance too far?

Would you turn away?

If I choose to stay, if I want to go

Would it break your heart?

Would you even know?

Cause it's

It's just too much

Too much for me to even take

It's not enough

Enough for my heart anyway

It's just as tough

It's just as tough for me tonight

And I'll be the one that got away [x2]

I want to satisfy both of your sides

Show you the truth

When you're living a lie

Before you were hurt

I put my life on the line

That's how much you mean to me

I may be crazy, a little confused

But all that really means is I'm crazy for you

Baby you want me, you need me

You really gotta have me

You know I'm waiting here

Ima always make you happy

[Chorus]

If I come to close would you pull away?

Will you dance too far?

Would you turn away?

If I choose to stay if I want to go

Would it break your heart?

Would you even know?

Cause it's

It's just too much

Too much for me to even take

It's not enough

Enough for my heart anyway

It's just as tough

It's just as tough for me tonight

And I'll be the one that got away [x2]

It's just as tough, we all don't see the same thing

We try to talk, but you don't understand it, babe

I gotta work, 'cause my money is a major thing

So when you see me, you're never feeling outta space

I bought my house, cars, jewels, and my lifestyle

I think of you and me, that picture isn't right now

Forget the fights now, everything we went through

Mighta been a lot of shh but it led me on to you

What could I do, sittin' there all by myself, girl?

Too many nights we spent, wonderin' bout life and

If somebody near to me would be harmed

Would you be there in the morning tellin' me to hold on?

Gotta go on, there's reasons that I keep to myself

Damn right, from beginnin', never charm on my wealth

Put me under no shelf, I show you how we can be

Put us up against the odds, we can stand on our feet

Cause it's

It's just too much

Too much for me to even take

It's not enough

Enough for my heart anyway

It's just as tough

It's just as tough for me tonight

And I'll be the one that got away
