I wonder if you've cast a spell on me
you are always in my mind
you are all I see
I open up a book to get away
but your name's on every page
And it breaks my heart to think of you
and think of all the times I wanted to
tell you that my heart raced for you
you are the one thing I can't have
And I need to know
Tell me baby 'couse I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I?
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or just an obstacle in your way
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I?
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or were you glad I didn't stay
Want to tell you about a dream I had
Funny dream but I woke up sad
Saw your face as clear as day
Though I haven't see you in ages
I'll dial your number in my phone
I hope you'll pick up and be alone
I'll ask about the golden ring
And if you ever dream of me
And I need to know
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I?
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or just an obstacle in your way
I need to know
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or were you glad I didn't stay
Now is it just that we want what we can't have
Or is it that the grass is always greener?
The dream of you much sweeter
I just can't see to let go of the past
Not until I know how your heart beats
beats when you see me
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I?
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
or just an obstacle in yor way
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Was I the one who got away?
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know
Tell me baby
Was I? ... Was I?
I'll up with a guy who kind of looks like Michael Fassbender
Anything to get these crazy raging manic thoughts away from you
You'll find me in the bar I'll be the one hitting hard on the bartender
Cause when he leaned in I could tell wore the same perfume as you
