the one that got away

The One That Got Away - The Civil Wars
I never meant to get us in this deep

I never meant for this to mean a thing

Oh, I wish you were the one

Wish you were the one that got away

I got caught up by the chase

And you got high on every little game

I wish you were the one

Wish you were the one that got away

Oh, if I could go back in time

When you only held me in my mind

Just a longing gone without a trace

Oh, I wish Id never ever seen your face

I wish you were the one

Wish you were the one that got away

I miss the way you wanted me

When I was staying just out of your reach

Begging for the slightest touch

Ooh, you couldnt get enough, mmm

Oh, if I could go back in time
When you only held me in my mind
Just a longing gone without a trace

Oh, I wish Id never ever seen your face

I wish you were the one

Wish you were the one that got away

Got away from me

Got away from me

Before anybody has to bleed

Oh, if I could go back in time
When you only held me in my mind
Just a longing gone without a trace

Oh, I wish Id never ever seen your face

I wish you were the one

I wish you were the one
Oh, I wish you were the one

I wish you were the one that got away
