The One That Got Away Lyrics[Verse 1: Joy Williams with John Paul White]
I never meant to get us in this deep
I never meant for this to mean a thing
Oh, I wish you were the one
Wish you were the one that got away
I got caught up by the chase
And you got high on every little game
I wish you were the one
Wish you were the one that got away

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh, if I could go back in time
When you only held me in my mind
Just a longing gone without a trace
Oh, I wish I'd never ever seen your face
I wish you were the one
Wish you were the one that got away
[Verse 2: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
I miss the way you wanted me
When I was staying just out of your reach
Begging for the slightest touch
Ooh, you couldn't get enough, mmm

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh, if I could go back in time
When you only held me in my mind
Just a longing gone without a trace
Oh, I wish I'd never ever seen your face
I wish you were the one
Wish you were the one that got away

[Bridge: Joy Williams]
Got away from me
Got away from me
Before anybody has to bleed

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh, if I could go back in time
When you only held me in my mind
Just a longing gone without a trace
Oh, I wish I'd never ever seen your face
I wish you were the one
I wish you were the one
Wish you were the one
I wish you were the one that got away3
