"He Got Away"

Love's like fishing in the ocean 
Starve for days to catch a break 
Waiting in that boat alone 
The fish know something you don't 
They told me there aren't many of us down here 
All the good ones have been hooked 
But I threw back the finest one 
Coz I'm the one who got cooked 

He got away, he got away 
It's too late my baby's gone 
He got away, he got away 
How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one 
But i took too long 

Well everybody's got a notion 
Of how the story's meant to be 
But I got blinded by the stars 
And missed the part meant for me 
Yes I got all swept up with emotion 
But it's too hot for me to face 
Might of had a better plan 
If I wasn't caught up in the chase 

He got away, he got away 
It's too late my baby's gone 
He got away, he got away 
How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one 
But I took too long 

Baby, he called me baby 
When we were planning our registry 
In tennis doubles and in couple's therapy 
I'd make a special kind of wish list for Christmas 
In our Casa Suburbia 
And the neighbors would say that they can't possibly go 
To bed and read 

He got away, he got away 
It's too late my baby's gone 
He got away, he got away 
I could kick myself, 'cuz yeah, I was horribly wrong 
He got away, he got away 
It's too late my baby's gone 
He got away, he got away 
How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one 
But I took too long 

She took too long
She took too long
She took too long..

her voice kind of reminds me of that song sang in jabas palace in return of the jedi. Great song

Man, Sput's changed over the years haha.

First song that got me 'hooked' on Lucy tho. Girl's killer!

Not many chicks know how to curl a lip. A

I <3 Michael League's commentary at the end

These credits seem to be quite wrong - but awesome song!!!

Fantastic !

i love her voice, her flavor. and she's so free with it.

Second best track. :P

Which is the first one ?

Is this in Dorian mode?

I'd say melodic minor

SO NICEEEEE !!!

This was awesome live!

Love her voice!

Why isn't this track on the Family Dinner Vol. 1 album on Spotify? It's so good you guys are the bomb my favourite group

half of the tracks are bonus tracks. maybe that's why.

@pranavguitarist i believe de bonus tracks are on the dvd only

+pranavguitarist I think it's Lucy's song.

Cool to hear them snarky pups tackle some swing

Digalo wey!! 

Yowza, another and another....

this sounds like something from a disney movie lol

yo i was just thinking that lmao

I love Lucy

She is stunning!

♥♥♥ The Brilliant Lucy Woodward ♥♥♥

Suck it up dubstep. Instrumental is still better

I love the raspyness in her voice.

Great stuff as always, man that woman can sing!!

kk.. so now you're telling me these amazing instrumentalists can sing too?! awe-some!!

so you will be right back huh?

love the bass clarinet, love the ending, love the song!

Beautiful..!!
Who is sexier? The singer or the music itself? :-)

I'm gonna have to say it's the drums, my friend. =)

drums, amazing indeed! but I feel the same for each instrument ;-)

Tough call. We should give that bass clarinet some credit too though - keeping up a fine bass line. 

Genial! Sexy! macht echt Laune!

I'll still have hope for instrumental music,  with music being made like this today

Wicked sexy! Hot boys, so hot.

this is fantastic !

Love it...Monday is never far away.

Wow! This girl rocks!

another great one.

Absolutely bananas. Snarky Puppy, the world needs you.
