Melody Thornton - The One That Got Away Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
Lovin' you is like the pith (Like the doctor)
Sometimes he don't (And sometimes he love ya)
Didn't get us very far (All that cheatin')
And messin' around, already had us a feelin'

[Hook:]
Baby don't (don't) cry to me (Don't you do it babe)
Cus' you made the bed (don't) where you sleep (Don't you do it babe)
Go head and leave, eat your heart out
Go on and eat, eat your heart out
Now listen baby (So long, so long)
I done cried for you a thousand times
Now listen baby (Your love is gone)
But for you I know it lingers on
Tell me how

[Chorus:]
Often you think I'm the one that got away
Often you think I'm the one that got away
Now when you call me you cry, beg me to stay, stay
You often think I'm the one that got away
Now I'm in love (So long, so long)
I think I found me someone

[Verse 2:]
I was always by your side (When my friends said)
You'd leave me behind (I knew but I never listened)
Didn't get me very far (Being loyal)
To a boy not a man [?] (So young he can't even spoil)?

[Hook:]
Baby don't (don't) cry to me (Don't you do it babe)
Cus' you made the bed (don't) where you sleep (Don't you do it babe)
Go head and leave, eat your heart out
Go on and eat, eat your heart out
Now listen baby (So long, so long)
I done cried for you a a million times
Now listen baby (Your love, is gone)
But for you I know it lingers on
Tell me how

[Chorus:]
Often you think I'm the one that got away
Often you think I'm the one that got away
Now when you call me you cry, beg me to stay, stay
You often think I'm the one that got away
Now I'm in love (So long, so long)
I think I found me someone
Now I'm in love, I think I found me someone
