Lee Woods - The One [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

The One

[Verse 1]

Wasn't looking for you but there you were
Watching me through the glass
Smoke in hand with your pretentious beer
Hope we'd meet in passing
But I dodged your eyes
I kept mine low cause I already know about your type
Rumor held that you had yourself a girl
When I asked you said
"Baby, I don't know you
But I love you more than her."

[Chorus]

I'll be the one that got away
You'll be the fool that let me go
You held on for assurance
You wouldn't end up alone
I'll be the one
I'll be the one

[Verse 2]

Wasn't feeling on you and then you touched
We rocked the boat and broke bad
Girl of pleasure, man of lust
They warned me, begged me
Please don't, please don't fall in love
I dove head first and sank to deep
While you caught fire from above
Of a man, I had never been so sure
Grabbed my hand and promised the entire world
Then you said, "I really want you but I still love her."

[Chorus]

I'll be the one that got away
You'll be the fool that let me go
You held on for assurance
You wouldn't end up alone
I'll be the one
I'll be the one
I'll be the one that got away
You'll be the fool that let me go
You held on for assurance
You wouldn't end up alone
I'll be the one
I'll be the one

[Bridge]

His mind sways with the wind
As red turns to black
So do his decisions
Don't throw it away
Don't throw it away
Don't throw it away
Don't throw it away

[Chorus]

I'll be the one that got away
You'll be the fool that let me go
You held on for assurance
You wouldn't end up alone
I'll be the one
I'll be the one
I'll be the one that got away
You'll be the fool that let me go
You held on for assurance
You wouldn't end up alone
I'll be the one
I'll be the one
