I ran into you
Like a deja vu, but I’ve never seen your face
When I heard your voice above all the noise
I felt so out of place
It was make or break why did I hesitate
I didn’t know just what to do
(i had) one chance
(i had) one shot
I should’ve walked right up to you
[Chorus]
I didn’t even know your name
Why did I look you in the eyes
And now ill never be the same
It was an ordinary day
Was it my loneliness inside
That put you deep into my mind
Now I cant forget, the girl that got away
It was the month of may
Its been a year today
Since you ran off with my life
Going through my head,
The notes I could’ve sent, 365 goodbyes
(i had) one night
(i had) one touch
Oh, should’ve tried to make you mine
[Chorus]
To whom it may concern,
Would you please return,
I’ve got so much more to say
If I got it wrong, can you pass it on
To the girl that got away
[Chorus]
