[Intro]
[Hook]
I let you go so reluctantly, but I could still hear your lazy symphony...
[Verse 1]
Have you ever thought about the one that got away?
Thinking of what could've been, and regret it to this day?
Let me take you through my memories before it starts to fade...
It all started in high school, back in 12th grade
The years were boring, until I met this Puerto Rican chick
She had the face of a model and her ass was so thick
Her hair had intricate designs paired with beautiful eyes
She had the guys in the class staring at her nice thighs
And she sat beside me in Biology class
After we chatted for a bit, it was mythology class
The thoughts that I had were sick, they were driving me mad
Wanted to mix up our genes in Biology labs
She said that she was from New Jersey and she had a lot of enemies
But that didn't matter, she was more than a friend to me
But I didn't tell her, that would mess things up
I had a good thing going but the act was getting tough
[Hook]
I let you go so reluctantly, but I could still hear your lazy symphony...
I let you go so reluctantly, but I could still hear your lazy symphony...
[Verse 2]
Two months passing by, I knew I had to make a move
The other guys in the class wanted some of her too
So I asked the scary question and waited in silence...
She thought about it like it wasn't even part of her knowledge
After that, she said that her boyfriend was a soldier
Crushed by the answer, but I had to get some closure
Story of my life, and that moment was the poster
Always hiding how I felt was getting to be torture
It didn't stop there, she had more news for me
She said, that she was moving to Florida in two weeks
Calculated in my mind, that was the week before my birthday
I swore this always happened to me, someone must have cursed me
Now I had to bury what was always been inside of me
But it was so alive and raw, I couldn't let it die in peace
The week before you left, I had to let you know
That the time we spent together were the best and let you go
