Standin' on my step, kinda felt like freedom
Malibu one suitcase short of leavin'
You were the driver, I was the reason
There was mascara on your shirt
If I'da known where that left turn was leadin'
You'da seen me runnin' in a rearview
Like you tied my heart to your car
Turn the key in three, two

One day you called me baby
These days it's only eighty
Proof you probably hate me
I don't blame you, I blame me
For them sunset taillights sinkin', tonight I'm just thinkin'
Three words, too late, damn girl
You're the one that got away

Countin' on a bottle to flood these memories
They're still floatin' and it's almost empty
Take the whiskey rain of this century to drown you out
Make you do a you-turn, if it was me it was up to
Girl, just like that, I'd take you back in three, two

One day you called me baby
These days it's only eighty
Proof you probably hate me
I don't blame you, I blame me
For them sunset taillights sinkin', tonight I'm just thinkin'
Three words, too late, damn girl
You're the one that got away

Yeah, in about three, two

One, I'ma call you baby
Try to change your mind one-eighty
I know you probably hate me
I don't blame you, I blame me
For them sunset taillights sinkin'
Tonight I'm just thinkin'
Three words, too late, damn girl
You're the one that got away

Got away
