We both love a Reprise, as long as it doesn't take the place of another track on the record, so we thought Ok we have '13' cuts, maybe let's do Piano/ Vocal version of a song.
I was @ Trackdown (Studios) doing overdubs while Glenn was away & we’d finished everything needed ahead of time. I asked the engineer to put a light click on @ a tempo, to turn the lights down low & let me this down once. Either it’ll work or it won’t.
It worked, K.
lyrics
The One That Got Away. (Bidmead/ Buchanan).
Write me a letter drop me a line
Cause I don’t see you anymore
Think I still love you but I could be lyin’
If there was a way I could know for sure
But it seems that every thought of you
I have tears me apart
You could be the one I left behind
You’re the only chaos in my mind
Now there’s nothin’ more to say
If I could only find the words
To make you understand me when I say
You’re the one that got away
Maybe I’ll call you, I probably won’t
Maybe I need to get a life
Sometimes I miss you, sometimes I don’t
All of my dreams are black and white
But it seems that everythin’ I want
Just leads me to you
You could be the one I left behind
You’re the only chaos in my mind
Now there’s nothin’ more to say
If I could only find the words
To make you understand me when I say
You’re the one that got away
I’d rather let you down than let you go
It’s better to have loved than not at all
You could be the one I left behind
You’re the only one still in my mind
You could be the one I left behind
You could be the reason my love is blind
Now there’s nothin’ more to say
If I could only find the words
To make you understand me when I say
You could be the one I left behind
You’re the only chaos in my mind
Now there’s nothin’ more to say
If I could only find one word
To make you understand me when I say
You’re the one that got away
You got away
