The Geek That Got Away
(To the tune of "The One That Got Away" by Katy Perry)
Moved in across the hallway
When we first met
I think I still remember
The words that you said
It all happened so quickly
You were messing with my head
One day you bought a telescope
Took me to the roof
Talked about the constellations
I never knew
Didn't think that one day
I'd be missing you
In a parallel
Universe, I know
We're keeping our promises
I'm not letting you go
In a galaxy
Far, far, far away,
I might not be saying you were
The geek that got away
The geek that got away
I was Princess Leia
You treated me right
Until a disagreement
Turned into a fight
Sometimes, when I'm lonely,
I think about that night
One day your friend came knocking
Nine times on my door
He said you'd bought a cat and
You wanted twelve more
I said, "Thanks for trying,
But 'us' can't be restored"
In a parallel
Universe, I know
We're keeping our promises
I'm not letting you go
In a galaxy
Far, far, far away,
I might not be saying you were
The geek that got away
The geek that got away
The geek
The geek
The geek
The geek that got away
Nobody's invented a time machine
So I can't go and tell you what you meant to me
I never realised how great we were
And now you're out with her. . .
In a parallel
Universe, I know
We're keeping our promises
I'm not letting you go
In a galaxy
Far, far, far away,
I might not be saying you were
The geek that got away
The geek that got away
The geek
The geek
The geek
In a galaxy
Far, far, far away,
I might not be saying you were
The geek that got away
The geek that got away
