Lyrics

One That Got Away
Some of the boys got to talking
About the girls they had known
About the love of their lives
And a few ex-wives
Mostly bragging and carrying on

Well, I just couldn't sit quiet
So when they asked me what I had to say
I said, "I've had my share
But they can't compare to the one that got away"

She was fit as a fiddle
Shaped like a fine guitar
She let me kiss her just a little
But I never got too far
Now we could've made msweet mustic
But I never really got to play
Now I sit and fret
Cause I can't forget the one that got away

Now chasing women is like fishing
Boys you gotta take your time
You know you gotta wait, 'til they take the bait
And you''ll need a good strong line
Well, I must've been in a hurry
Cause I thought I had her hooked one day
But she jumped out of my net
And I can't forget the one that got away

She was fit as a fidlle
Shaped like a fine guitar
She let me kiss her just a little
But I never really got too far
Now we could've made sweet music
But I never really got to play
Now I sit and fret
Cause I can't forget the one that got away
