Mmmm mm yeah
Oh oh

I stood by the exit door in the hotel cafe
He was playin' with his band
I've always been a sucker, had a weakness
For a boy with a guitar and a drink in his hand
His words were like heaven in my hurricane
My knees buckled under
I thought everyone was watching me
Watching you save my life with the song

You were mine in the back of my mind
O...just for one night
Just for a while

There's always one that gets away
The one that sneaks up on you then slips away

Two weeks later I was sittin' in his apartment
He was makin' cappuccino
I said "what kind of man makes cappuccino?"
We laughed, we laughed, we laughed, we laughed
Till tears ran down my face

But my man you're someone else's man
And that ain't the man that I wanna want
But you keep drawin' me in with those big brown lyin' eyes

But you'll always be mine in the back of my mind
O...we had a night
Just a little while

Chorus:
There's always one that gets away
The one that sneaks up on you that slips away
In a closed off corner of my heart
I'll always see your face
The one that got away 5X

I'm not a victim of cliches
I don't believe in soulmates
Happy endings or the one
Oh but then I met you and all that changed
I had a taste
And you're still sitting on the tip of my tongue

You were mine
Somewhere in time
I'll look for you first
In my next life

Chorus

The one that got away 5X
