I don't want to look
At you and your new relationship.
Because you were the one
That got away.

We were high school sweethearts.
Meant to be.
You said I was the one.
But look at us now.

I was your Romeo,
You were my Juliet.
We were two lovers,
Fighting against the world.

It was us against everyone.
We were so happy.
Without you though,
I'm just a half of a whole.

If I had the chance,
To make you mine again.
I would take it,
Without a second thought.

We were simply meant to be,
Now look at us now.
In another life than
What we thought would happen.

Now you're with him,
And I'm with her,
And all I can do,
Is sit here and think about you.

I would trade the word,
Just to have you in my arms again.
Because you were the one,
The one that got away.
