The Love That Got Away
[Verse 1]
If you live long enough
You start to think about a list
Of what you would do differently
The chances that you would take
The grand ceilings you would break
The loving life that you would make
[Chorus]
I know two or three
You keep your eye on
In case you are free
You keep your eye on
[Verse 2]
All the people passing by
I wonder how they live their lives
And think of one outside of mine
I imagine and I envy
All of their discoveries
Their simple, plain complexities
[Chorus]
And I know two or three
You keep your eye on
In case they are free
You keep your eye on
[Chorus]
You and I both know
It's hard to say
That ours is a love
That got away
