I recently picked up the new The Civil Wars album. And the first song is just amazing. I had to share it with you today. I love the voice combination of Joy Williams and John Paul White. Just gorgeous!
Lyrics:
I never meant to get us in this deep I never meant for this to mean a thing Oh, I wish you were the one Wish you were the one that got away
I got caught up by the chase And you got high on every little game I wish you were the one Wish you were the one that got away
Oh, if I could go back in time When you only held me in my mind Just a longing gone without a trace Oh, I wish I'd never ever seen your face I wish you were the one Wish you were the one that got away
I miss the way you wanted me When I was staying just out of your reach Begging for the slightest touch Ooh, you couldn't get enough, mmm
Oh, if I could go back in time When you only held me in my mind Just a longing gone without a trace Oh, I wish I'd never ever seen your face I wish you were the one Wish you were the one that got away
Got away from me Got away from me Before anybody has to bleed
Oh, if I could go back in time When you only held me in my mind Just a longing gone without a trace Oh, I wish I'd never ever seen your face I wish you were the one I wish you were the one Oh, I wish you were the one I wish you were the one that got away
