[Intro]
[Verse 1]
We ve all got that someone
Who slipped right through our hands
An old t-shirt you still wear from time to time
It felt so right, on lonely nights
You wonder what could have been
A heart you can t believe you left behind
[Chorus]
I wish you were the one that got away
If you were a memory
I might still be in love with you today
It wouldn t hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache
Oh I wish you were the one that got away
[Verse 2]
You walk through the door and reach for that first beer
Hit the couch and turn the TV on
And I wake-up beside you and wonder why I m still here
When everything we used to be is gone
[Chorus]
I wish you were the one that got away
If you were a memory
I might still be in love with you today
It wouldn t hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache
Oh I wish you were the one that got away
[Bridge]
If you were just a picture
I pulled out of my dresser
To look at every now and then
Something bittersweet
Something I could keep and have fun remembering
[Instr]
[Chorus]
It wouldn t hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache
Oh I wish you were the one that got away
Yeah I wish you were the one that got away
[Outro]
