If there's one thing I'd say to you (If there's one thing I'd say to ya)
It's that I could take a let down well (I could take it, yes I can)
But it really wasn't a let down (No, I guess it really wasn't)
But you just took off and that was hell (What were you thinking)

I'm not an angry man
And I could not be down on you
I tell myself you missed out
You were just one more who got away

If I could ever see you again (If I could ever see you again)
I would tell you what you didn't do hurt (I would tell you, yes I might)
That smile of yours didn't let any words out (No I guess it didn't now)
But maybe you lied and that was worse (What were you thinking)

I am not a vengeful man
And I could wnot be down on you
I tell myself you missed out
You were just one more who got away

And missed the boat (and missed the boat)
Fell off the side (fell off the side)
Stumbled off the transom
Did you ever feel bad inside, yeah

And for all I know (for all I know)
You're running for your life (running for your life)
Some folks had sweet things to say
About what might have happened for us, yeah!

If I could do it all over again (If I could do it all over again)
I might have done it differently (Then again, well, maybe not)
Less weird, less freaky, less in your face (What's done is done so I'll move on)
But Laura, what exactly was it about me (On second thought don't answer that)

But you know I'm a happy man
And a boy's life goes on without you
When I'm feeling low I'll think of your smile
You were just one more who got away...

And missed the boat (and missed the boat)
Fell off the side (fell off the side)
Stumbled off the transom
Did you ever feel bad inside, yeah

And for all I know (for all I know)
You're running for your life (running for your life)
Some folks had sweet things to say
About what might have happened for us, yeah!
