Hunter Hayes - The One That Got Away Lyrics

Hunter Hayes - The One That Got Away Lyrics:

I’m not a criminal

Oh no oh no

But I felt like a prisoner 

For so long so long

And all I ever wanted 

Was to love and to be loved 

So what did I do to you

So wrong so wrong

Cause you broke so much more than just a promise

When you made me believe I wasn’t wanted

I could miss you like you want but if I’m honest

I feel like the one that got away

Don’t know how I escaped

Breathing better cause I’m better now 

In the middle of the night

Made it to the other side

You can run but you can’t catch me now

I’m the one that got away

Turns out you're not a god

All the faith that I gave to you

Silence is all I got

And I hate that I prayed to you

All the chains that I couldn’t break

The games that I couldn’t play

Cause you’d always win them anyway

Never thought there would come a day

Where I’d be safe and safe enough to say 

That I'm the one that got away

Don’t know how I escaped

Breathing better cause I’m better now 

In the middle of the night

Made it to the other side

You can run but you can’t catch me now

I’m the one that got away

Is it worth the price I paid for staying

I gave it all you gave it all away and now I’m

taking back the piece of me you wasted

I'm the one that got away

Don’t know how I escaped

Breathing better cause I’m better now 

In the middle of the night

Made it to the other side

You can run but you can’t catch me now

I’m the one that got away
