Lyrics
One That Got Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The one that got away; you thought of him the other day.
The one who made you laugh. The one you didnt photograph.
Your wired child, who calls for miles.
--The one that got away.
Dont think of himdont think of him
But sometimes in the morning
It hits you without warning.
A message on the coat rack
The coat you never gave back.
-Sometimes in the morning
The one youre with tonight;
Presentable in any light.
The one who walks your dog.
The one who wants to pray to God. Unlike
Your wired child. He prayed to style.
--The one that got away.
Dont think of him. Dont think of him
Still sometimes in the morning
It hits you without warning.
A tapping at your window.
Just branches where the wind blows.
-Sometimes in the morning
-Oh, what a blow; to come that close.
You want to know. Did he come that close?
-Youll never know. No, never!
Still sometimes in the morning; Sometimes in the morning.
It hits you without warning; It hits you without warning.
A tapping at your window. A tapping at your window.
Sometimes in the morning.
-You think of him..you think of himyou think of him
