this one

im not one for looking back

ive lost too much to start caring now

but this one

yea this one

my praise to the one that got away

the softest lips

breaking the hardest of hearts

and this world had no time set aside for us

sometimes life has a way of taking over

so they say

and i dont regret a thing

i just want you to know

its a fond memory of mine

and i cant ever forget you

im not one for staring

ive hurt too much to pine over things

but this one

yea this one

my ode to the one that got away

i see you in pictures

colorful and full of life

and it still makes me smile

the memory of the way we used to look at each other

still makes my heart start to race

still makes my stomach flutter

youre a warm blanket of a memory

youre the ember i hold inside

to light the greatest of fires when i need it

and if things had been different

i might not feel this way at all

so i hold this special little fantasy

all to myself

and take comfort in the fact

that for one short time, the world was ours

im not one for looking back

ive seen too much to start questioning it all

but this one

yea this one

...yea

this one.
