Cosgrove Rushing - The One That Got Away

Lord she's so happy
That girl sounds happy
Every time I talk with her
That's all she'll ever say
But I catch her when she's quiet
Her eyes on that horizon
Maybe she'll tell you 'bout
The one that got away
She opens up a box of faded letters
Broken memories from her past
She cries a cry
That no one hears
Of a love that didn't last
She runs her fingers through her hair
Has another glass of wine
Closes up her box of memories
For 'bout the millionth time
She's happy
She sounds happy
Every time I talk with her
That's all she'll ever say
But catch her when she's quiet
Her eyes on that horizon
Maybe she'll tell you 'bout
The one that got away
She chose a road that was safe and traveled
But thinks about what might have been
Puts on her worn out smile
But her smiles are wearing thin
She's happy
She sounds happy
Every time I talk with her
That's all she'll ever say
But catch her when she's quiet
Her eyes on that horizon
Maybe she'll tell you 'bout
The one that got away
Maybe she'll tell you 'bout
The one that got away
