about

“Got Away” is the fifth single to be released off her upcoming third album, I Did It Anyway. This song is a sequel to one of her previous fan favourites, “Damned If I Do” and puts a whole new spin on "the one that got away”.

lyrics

You were a small town, heart-throbbin’, blue-eyed boy
With more persistence than anyone before
Running into you, it felt like magic
Calling next day, like a hopeless romantic

Everyone thought we looked perfect together
But boy, you had way of making everything better
And years later I still hear people say
How you were the one, the one that got away

You got away with your lies and the nighttime excuses
Away, using charm to paint the perfect illusion
You’ve got a way with all of the ladies
Movin’ in real fast just to keep ‘em waitin’
I guess that you could say
You were the one, the one that got away

And who would have thought I’d run into that girl
The one who replaced me, after you wrecked my world
She met another when she finally could see
How you were doing to her what you’d done to me
And I knew it but she wouldn’t say it
You were the one, the one that....

You got away with no goodbyes, no sorries from you
No asking forgiveness for all you put me through
I might have cried when you set me free
Thank God you got away from me

Oh, you could say
You were the one, the one that got away
