Оригинален текст
Now stand right over there but don't talk to loud
I would hold your hand don't want to stand out in a crowd
I would buy you flowers but they'll die anyway
But I'll cover with butter just to get you to stay
Chorus
I am the one who got away
Doesn't matter what you say
You'll regret it till your dying day
Cause I'm the one who got away
Now she's just a friend and it don't mean a thing
If it didn't affect my work then I would wear my ring
Baby you know I love you and I'll always be true
But a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do
Chorus
You won't hang up my picture for all those to see
What's the matter baby you embarrassed of me
Cause I am the toughest little cookie that you ever gonna see
And you'll be crying like a baby when you can't find me
Chorus X2
I am the one who got away
I am the one who got away
