I'm upside-down in a hotel room And I'm okay with waiting on you I got stuck in my head Walking out to the pier And I've been living on peanut butter chocolate And beer And I'll commit you to memory Every little moment you gave me And I'll become a love you made If life went some other way I'll be the one that got away And there are so many things I should say, but I won't So many things you should know That you don't And there were so many times I should've kissed you 'Cause you're the one I want the most And I wonder what my choices will cost me If I'll grow up tired and lonely Like so many before me You'll have a family and friends Maybe work two jobs to meet the ends I'll become a thought you had A love you never made I'll be the one that got away And I will tell them the story Yeah, I'll tell everybody And you'll become a ghost of love That I let slip away You are the one that got away
