Desert Rose Band One That Got Away by Chris Hillman
Peter Knobler
One that got away
Came and tracked me down
What she had in mind one final time (?)
She always use to move me that way
She said what I'm looking to do
Is get my hands on you
And I'd be living a lie to say that I have the feeling too
Thats why I sighing tonight
Her dancing eyes are laughing so bright
And if she gets away from me again I'll miss her till the end
If I'm right
I should go home tonight
Living in a lonsesome town
She married late and settled down (?)
I raised a family found security
We loved what we called our home
I use to call her mine
We were so young and so fine
But do I want to start two life long brokens hearts
And come together one last time
Thats why I sighing tonight
Her dancing eyes are laughing so bright
And if she gets away from me again I'll miss her till the end
If I'm right
I should go home tonight
Hold you tonight and I throw my life away
Kids and a wife for a touch of yesterday
solo
Thats why I sighing tonight
Her dancing eyes are laughing so bright
And if she gets away from me again I'll miss her till the end
If I'm right
I should go home tonight
