The One Who Got Away

Here comes the sadness
Here comes the pain
Here come my lonely teardrops
Rolling like rain
Here comes the madness
Where everything I hear
Everything I see, everything I read
Reminds me of you, dear

But it doesn't have to be this hard
And I just can't stay

So I should let you break my heart
And I'll be the one who got away
Should have known it right from the start
Should have known it would end this way

Here come the cold nights
But I've made myself numb
Just one more pull of whiskey
Rolls down my tongue
Here comes the quaking
The walls tumbled down
They say that love heals it all
But I guess we found out

But it doesn't have to be this hard
And I just can't stay

So I should let you break my heart
And I'll be the one who got away
Should have known it right from the start
Should have known it would end this way

Nothing ever changes
You won't even try
You won't fight for this
But you know I still have my pride

So I should let you break my heart
And I'll be the one who got away
Should have known it right from the start
Should have known it would end this way

So I should let you break my heart
And I'll be the one who got away
Should have known it right from the start
Should have known it would end this way
