Verse 1:
You say you’re happy that you finally found me
Whatever happened before me is just a memory
Pre-Chorus:
But sometimes I wonder
What you were like
In all of the moments she held you tight
Chorus:
I wanna know you
Without her living in your history
I wanna love you
Without feeling her when you kiss me
Don't you tell me that she's the one that got away
And I'm your second best because I stay
I wanna hold you
Without feeling her arms around me
I wanna show you
That I could be your one and only
Don't you tell me that she's the one that got away
And I'm your second best because I stay
Verse 2:
I know you’ve told me that I’m your only love
But I still wish I could’ve been your very first one
Pre-Chorus 2:
I can't help comparing
If she might
Have made you feel better than I do now
Chorus:
I wanna know you
Without her living in your history
I wanna love you
Without feeling her when you kiss me
Don't you tell me that she's the one that got away
And I'm your second best because I stay
I wanna hold you
Without feeling her arms around me
I wanna show you
That I could be your one and only
Don't you tell me that she's the one that got away
And I'm your second best because I stay
Outro:
I wanna know you, ooh ooh
I wanna love you, ooh ooh
So don't you tell me that she's the one that got away
And I'm your second best because I stay
