Album: Long Time... No Sing (2006)

The One That Got Away

There in front of me, right before my eyes
Show their face, then disappear
And every photograph frames my great mistake
Now a broken man with nothin' left to break

Can't afford the cost

Every single, baited breath I take
Reminds me of the one that got away
The one that got away

In the magazine wear the painted smile
Faces staring all the while
And I turn the page, but never turn away
Now a silent man with nothin' left to say

In a sense, I'm lost

Every single, baited breath I take
Reminds me of the one that got away
The one that got away

I don't wanna lose, I don't wanna feel
I don't wanna make the same mistakes
I don't wanna dream, I don't wanna learn
I don't wanna make the same mistakes I made
She got away..
