wish you were the one that got away

i never meant to get us in this deep

i never meant for this to mean a thing

oh

i wish you were the one

i wish you were the one that got away

i got caught up by the chase

and you got high on every little game

i wish you were the one

i wish you were the one that got away

oh

if i could go back in time

when you only held me in my mind

just a longing gone without a trace

oh

i wish i'd never ever seen your face

i wish you were the one

i wish you were the one that got away

i miss the way you wanted me

when i was staying just out of your reach

begging for the slightest touch

ooh

you couldn't get enough

mmm

oh

if i could go back in time

when you only held me in my mind

just a longing gone without a trace

oh

i wish i'd never ever seen your face

i wish you were the one

i wish you were the one that got away

got away from me

got away from me

before anybody has to bleed

oh

if i could go back in time

when you only held me in my mind

just a longing gone without a trace

oh

i wish i'd never ever seen your face

i wish you were the one

i wish you were the one

oh

i wish you were the one

i wish you were the one that got away
