Lyrics

THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY - TOM BANYARD

Now that I've Known You
Now that I've Used You
Now I don't Need You
Now that I've Fought You
Now that I've Taught You
Now I don't Want You

When I look for you my heart only seeks the truth,
One, The One, The One that got away...
One, The One, The One that got away...

Now that I've Teased You
Now that I've Pleased You
Now I don't Need You
Now that I've Loved You
Now that I've Touched You
Now I don't Want You

When I look for you my heart only seeks the truth,
One, The One, The One that got away...
One, The One, The One that got away...

The One that got away, She said she couldn't stay
Why can't she come and play? The One that got away...
The One that got away, She said she couldn't stay
Why can't she come and play? The One that got away...
The One that got away, The One that got away
Turn back another day...

CHORUS, MIDDLE 8, END
