The One That Got Away

I held your heart like it was mine

But I let it slip through time

I chased the stars and lost my way

Never thought you'd leave me that day

Your laughter echoed in my mind

A melody you left behind

I took for granted all you'd give

Now I'm left with regret to live

You were the light I couldn't see

The missing half, the better me

Now I'm alone, the price I pay

For letting the one I loved walk away

The little things I brushed aside

The quiet nights you stood by my side

I was blind, I was a fool

I broke the only golden rule

If I could turn back time and fight

I'd hold you close, make it right

But shadows don't return the same

And I've only got myself to blame, hmn

You were the light I couldn't see

The missing half, the better me

Now I'm alone, the price I pay

For letting the one I loved walk away

If I could turn back time and fight

I'd hold you close, make it right

But shadows don't return the same

And I've only got myself to blame, hmn
