The One That Got Away

She rolled in my little sandy town

She spent the summer there, a couple houses down

Well, it was magic in the air when she caught my eye

We shared three short months and one long goodbye

She was the one that got away

The one that wrecked my heart

I should've begged her to stay

She was the one that got away

Yeah, the one that got away

Well, she kissed my lips down on Ocean Drive

She set my world on fire on the fourth of July

We wrote our names in the sand under the star-soaked sky

But it washed away like she did with the rising tide

She was the one that got away

The one that wrecked my heart

I should've never let her go

I should've begged her to stay

She was the one that got away, yeah

Every summer that rolls around

I'm looking over my shoulder

Wishing I could see her face

Wishing I could hold her

She was the one that got away

The one that wrecked my heart

I should've never let her go

I should've begged her to stay

She was the one that got away, yeah

She was the one that got away

Yeah, she wrecks my heart

I should've never let her go

I should've begged her to stay

She was the one that got away

She was the one that got away

She rolled in my little sandy town

She spent the summer there

A couple houses down
