Lucy Woodward - He Got Away lyrics

Love's like fishing in the ocean Starve for days to catch a break Waiting in that boat alone The fish know something you don't They told me there ain't many of us down here All the good ones have been hooked But I threw back the finest one Now I'm the one who's been cooked He got away, he got away He got away, he got away It's too late, my baby's gone He got away, he got away He got away, he got away How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one But I took too long Well, everybody's got a notion Of how their story's meant to be But I got blinded by the stars And missed the part meant for me Yes, I got all swept up with emotion But it's too hot for me to face Might've had a better plan If I wasn't caught up in the chase He got away, he got away He got away, he got away It's too late, my baby's gone He got away, he got away He got away, he got away How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one But I took too long Baby, he called me, baby When we were planning our registry In tennis doubles and in couple's therapy I'd make a special kind of wish list for Christmas In our casa suburbia And all the neighbors would say They can't possibly go to bed and read, oh Oh, he got away, he got away He got away, he got away It's too late, my baby's gone He got away, he got away He got away, he got away I could kick myself 'cause yeah, I was horribly wrong He got away, he got away He got away, he got away It's too late, my baby's gone He got away, he got away He got away, he got away How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one But I took too long She took too long Oh, whoa Don't rub it in She took too long Don't rub it in
