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

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
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

I wish you were the one that got away
If you were a memory
I might still be in love with you today
Wouldn’t hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache
Oh I wish you were the one that got away
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
