The One That Got Away Lyrics - Allison Moorer

The moon is full and my arms are empty 

All night long I've pleaded and cried 

You always said the day that you would leave 

Would be a cold day in July 

Your bags are packed not a word is spoken 

I guess we said everything with good-bye 

Time moves so slow and promises get broken 

On this cold day in July 

Sun's comin' up comin' up down on Main Street 

Children shout as they're running out to play 

Head in my hands here I am 

Standing in my bare feet 

Watching you drive away 

Watching you drive away 

You said that we were gonna last forever 

You said our love would never die 

It looks like spring and 

It feels like sunny weather 

But it's a cold day in July 

Sun's comin' up comin' up down on Main Street 

Children shout as they're running out to play 

Head in my hands here I am 

Standing in my bare feet 

Watching you drive away 

Watching you drive away 

The moon is full my arms are empty 

All night long how I've pleaded and cried 

You always said the day that you would leave me 

Would be a cold day in July 

Here comes that cold day in July
