Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – Soft Piano / Ambient Guitar] Yeah… I saw you tonight. Didn’t think it would hit like this. [Verse 1] I still know the curve of your smile Like the back roads out of this town Every corner’s got your ghost Every sunset pulls me down You said we were “right, wrong time” Guess the clock just chose your side ’Cause now you’re standing in his arms And I’m just standing here outside [Pre-Chorus] I thought we were a slow burn flame Didn’t know love could change that fast [Chorus – Big, Emotional] You were the one that got away Now you found someone new Guess I was just a chapter In the story that led to you You look happier than you ever did with me Like I was just something you outgrew You were the one that got away… And you found someone new [Verse 2] I remember that July rain You dancing in my truck bed Swore that we were forever Every word you said Now forever’s just a word You don’t even say out loud He gets the version of you That I always dreamed about [Pre-Chorus] I keep replaying every line Trying to see where we went wrong [Chorus] You were the one that got away Now you found someone new Guess I was just a chapter In the story that led to you You look happier than you ever did with me Like I was just something you outgrew You were the one that got away… And you found someone new [Bridge – Stripped Down] Do you ever miss the way We used to stay up talking ’til the sun? Or did you let me fade The second he came along? I hope he holds you tighter I hope he never lets you down I hope he gives you everything I couldn’t figure out [Final Chorus – Bigger / With Harmony] You were the one that got away Now you found someone new I’m just a faded photograph You don’t even look at too You’re smiling in a different life Like I never mattered to you You were the one that got away… And you found someone new [Outro – Soft] If loving you was my mistake It’s one I’d still choose… ’Cause you were the one that got away— And you found someone new.**
