the one (that got away) Lyrics

If I can't be the one

Then can I be the one that got away?

The one that you loved once

And still think about once or twice a day

Oh I still wonder

Who I would be if we

Had made it through the summer of 2019

Maybe

I'd be

The one

The one

Smoking post-sex cigarettes

On the balcony

The whole city's dead

Just you and me

And not much to do in your

Little dorm room

We were never bored

But I wanted more

We were so in love

But I wanted more

More and more of you but you

Were too scared to lose

Your independence

Still couldn't let me go

Everytime we tried to end it

It made me pull you close

We were so good at fighting

I was always crying

But we always made up

'Til we didn't make up

So if I can't be the one

Then can I be the one that got away?

The one that you loved once

And still think about once or twice a day

Don't you still wonder

Who you would be if we

Had made it through the summer of 2019?

Maybe

You'd be

The one

Ooh ooh

Maybe you'd be the one

Oooh
