LUCY WOODWARD LYRICS - He Got Away

"He Got Away"



Love's like fishing in the ocean

Starve for days to catch a break

Waiting in that boat alone

Fish know something you don't

They told me there aren'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

It's too late my baby's gone

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 the 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 of had a better plan

If I wasn't caught up in the chase



He got away, he got away

It's too late my baby's gone

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 the neighbors would say that they can't possibly go

To bed and read



He got away, he got away

It's too late my baby's gone

He got away, he got away

I could kick myself, 'cuz yeah, I was horribly wrong

He got away, he got away

It's too late my baby's gone

He got away, he got away

How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one

But I took too long



Don't rub it in

Don't rub it in
