lyrics

(Got away)
(Got away)
(Got away)
(She got away)

The one that got away was a cashier at the grocery store
The one that got away looked like everyone that came before
But somewhere in her heart there lurked a secret
Something deep inside that she knew she had to lock away
And all I wanted was to help her keep it
I'm sure she'll see that when she's looking back on this, some day
So here's to the one that got away

The one that got away fought back until she was black and blue
The one that got away had some issues we were working through
But there were nights exhausted by emotion
And her face stained by every tear I'd wiped away
When I could see she understood the notion
That if she'd let me, I could keep the whole damned world at bay
So here's to the one that got away

When she stabbed me in the back
I half-expected it
Still, I'd have had her heart
If she hadn't protected it

(Huh!)

The one that got away suffered only superficial wounds
The one that got away said I kept her in a cold, dark room
But though she gave an accurate description
To the nice policeman with the coffee on the plastic tray
She turned down every offer of prescriptions
You tell me why she wouldn't give those memories away
So here's to the one that got away
(Got away)
(Got away)
Here's to the one that got away
(Got away)
(Got away)
Here's to the one...
That got away
(Got away)
(Got away)
(Got away)
(She got away)
