The One That Got Away Songtext / Lyric

She rolled in, my little sandy town
She spent the summer there, a couple houses down
Well it was magic in the air when she caught my eye
We shared three short months and one long goodbye Chorus:

She was the one that got away, the one that wrecked my heart
I should've never let her go, I should've begged her to stay
She was the one that got away, yeah, the one that got away Well she kissed my lips down on Ocean Drive
She set my world on fire on the fourth of July
We wrote our names in the sand under the star-soaked sky
But it washed away like she did with the rising tide

Chorus


Every summer that rolls around, I'm looking over my shoulder
Wishing I could see her face, wishing I could hold her

Chorus (2x)

She rolled in, my little sandy town
She spent the summer there, a couple houses down
