One That Got Away
Mmm
Mmm, yeah
Mmm, yeah
Oh
Dearly beloved
We are gathered today to celebrate love
The love that went away
Oh, but it's still in the room
Tell me who let you through
You had to see it with your own eyes
To know that it's true
And know it ain't you
So speak now
Or forever hold your peace
While you pick up the pieces
You could never break off me
On second thought, you don't get to talk
I know that's right
What happened to your old hype
I thought that was your type
Dazzled up my body in this dress
Cause it's showtime
Know you miss them late nights
And how it used to fit tight
You had plenty time when your privilege was me
Had me in your palm and you still couldn't read
Had me on your arms but you still couldn't lead
Now shall I proceed (Yes indeed)
Don't speak now
Forever hold your peace
While you pick up the pieces you could never break off me
Don't speak now
Forever hold your peace
While you pick up the pieces you could never break off me
Oh, oh, oh
And starting today
I'll always be the one that got away
Oh, oh
(Board members)
Mmm, yeah

To know that it's true

So speak now
Or forever hold your peace
While you pick up the pieces
You could never break off me
On second thought, you don't get to talk

While you pick up the pieces you could never break off me
Don't speak now
Forever hold your peace
While you pick up the pieces you could never break off me
Oh, oh, oh
And starting today
I'll always be the one that got away
Oh, oh
