The One That Got Away Songtext / Lyric

Oh I thought, you'd always be right here
Never thought, I'd watch you disappear Through it all, I'm holdin' on
Tryin' to make right of what went wrong
What will it take for you to see
I left you with the best of me
And I try to forget...
Everything you never said Don't tell me it's too late
I wait for the moment you say,
Say that you'll stay
'Cause I won't let go
I need to know
That you won't be
The one that got away

Today I have to face the truth
Can't replace, can't find another you

So through it all, I'm holdin' on
Tryin' to make right of what went wrong
What will it take for you to see
I left you with the best of me

Don't tell me it's too late
I wait for the moment you say,
Say that you'll stay
And don't give up tonight
This time I won't let you be
The one that got away
'Cause I won't let go
I need to know
That you won't be
The one that got away

We're losin' time
(Losing time)
Can I change your mind?
(Can I change your mind?)
We're slipping out
(Slippin' out)
Can I bring you back somehow?

Don't tell me it's too late
I wait for the moment you say,
Say that you'll stay
And don't give up tonight
This time I won't let you be
The one that got away
'Cause I won't let go
I need to know
That you won't be
The one that got away

No, I won't let go
Oh, I need to know
That you won't be
The one that got away
