One That Got Away

One That Got Away

Music & Lyrics by Rebecca Correia

You say that you missed me

As you sprinkle your insults like confetti at my shoes

I must have misheard you

Please come again

I could have sworn you said something rude

Sticks and stones may break my bones

But you can’t hurt me

I’m bulletproof

And so much more than worthy

I’m not gonna wait

I’m not gonna waste another night

Ride into the sun

No one’s hired gun

I am through

You won’t forget my name

Cause I’m clean slated and straight faced

The one that got away

You ask if I am even ready

As this is my first rodeo with a bronco like you

You said you’d let me be in charge

But with an ego that large

It’s simply just not true

You’re broken

And your ugliness is showing

But I’m not the one who inflicted your wound

I’m not gonna wait

I’m not gonna waste another night

Ride into the sun

No one’s hired gun

I am through

You won’t forget my name

Cause I’m clean slated and straight faced

The one that got away

So I’ll say a prayer for you

There’s nothing left to do

I’m not gonna wait

I’m not gonna waste another night

Ride into the sun

No one’s hired gun

I am through

You won’t forget my name

Cause I’m clean slated and straight faced

The one that got away
