The one that got away

The one that got away is the girl I adore,
but even though she's not here, I'll love her evermore.
Each day brings some new face, each one so like another,
But no arms can replace the arms of my true lover.

The one… the one that got away was my first love and last,
And though my lips may stray, my heart beats in the past.
And even though the wind is changing every single day,
I still believe it will not be changed today.

The one… the one that got away was the best of me,
and I kept light in my balcony, with no hope she will see.
And I still have the will to keep pretending,
that one bright sunny day, I'll hear my lover say:
"I have come, I'm the one that couldn't get… get away".
