The One that Got Away
The one that got away
Is one you never really had
Someone worthy would’ve stuck around
Through the good and the bad
The one that get away
Only did you a favor
Because that’s not a flavor
That you really wanna savor
The one that got away
Was only around for the good
They wouldn’t stick by you in hard times
Like a real man or woman would
The one that got away
Really didn't elude you
They only out the way
So that you could do you
The one that got away
Wasn't the one at all
But the sum of all the other lames
With whom you shan’t involve
