One That Got Away

Desert Rose Band One That Got Away by Chris Hillman

Peter Knobler

 

One that got away

Came and tracked me down

What she had in mind one final time (?)

She always use to move me that way

She said what I'm looking to do

Is get my hands on you

And I'd be living a lie to say that I have the feeling too

Thats why I sighing tonight

Her dancing eyes are laughing so bright

And if she gets away from me again I'll miss her till the end

If I'm right

I should go home tonight

Living in a lonsesome town

She married late and settled down (?)

I raised a family found security

We loved what we called our home

I use to call her mine

We were so young and so fine

But do I want to start two life long brokens hearts

And come together one last time

Thats why I sighing tonight

Her dancing eyes are laughing so bright

And if she gets away from me again I'll miss her till the end

If I'm right

I should go home tonight

Hold you tonight and I throw my life away

Kids and a wife for a touch of yesterday

Thats why I sighing tonight

Her dancing eyes are laughing so bright

And if she gets away from me again I'll miss her till the end

If I'm right

I should go home tonight
