Salemtown – Glad She Got Away Lyrics

Verse
The second that that’s green door slammed
You hit me there and then
She really wasn’t comin’ back and I lost my bestfriend
I thought I’d never another
At first I didn’t even wanna try
I feel alright until that night when you walked in

Chorus
Now I’m glad she got away
Even though I tried to chase her
I might’ve it learned it the hard way
And now I’m thinkin’ I should thank her
For what I went through
Cuz the crazy truth
Lookin’ at all today
Her gone made room
For your baby blues
So I’m glad she got away

Verse
Every drunk kiss lipstick stains
And all our inside jokes
Yes we see exactly why my heart had to get broke
You say you don’t know what you got
Till it’s gone so I know
And I wouldn’t be here holdin’ you
If I never let her go

Chorus
So I’m glad she got away
Even though I tried to chase her
I might’ve it learned it the hard way
And now I’m thinkin’ I should thank her
For what I went through
Cuz the crazy truth
Lookin’ at all today
Her gone made room
For your baby blues
So I’m glad she got away from me

Bridge
Cuz baby the love we’re makin’ lately
I swear gets better every single day
So I’m glad she got away

Outro
I’m glad she got away
Even though I tried to chase her
Turns out the day I failed
Paved the way so I should thank her
For what I went through
Cuz the crazy truth
Lookin’ at all today
Her gone made room
For this me and you
So I’m glad she got away (I’m glad she got away)
I’m glad she got away (I’m glad she got away)
I’m glad she got away (I’m glad she got away)
I’m glad she got away


Song Meaning & Review

This song by Salemtown entitled “Glad She Got Away” is for everyone who broke up with their ex and is now happier with somebody new. In the first verse of the song, he talked about how he fought with his ex and thought he was never going to move on from his ex because his ex was also his best friend. He felt sad about losing the memories with her. It was not until he saw the new girl and fell in love with her.

The second verse after the chorus talks about all the fun things they did together saying he found out the reason why he had to get broke. He was thankful for letting go of her ex because if he didn’t, he wouldn’t be holding his new girl’s hands.

The bridge talks about how he feels happy that she let go of her ex because that made their love for each other grow every single day.

The chorus talks about how he tried to chase her before, but he failed and learned some things from it. Looking back, he realized that this failure paved the way for his happiness. And that’s why he’s glad that she got away.

This might serve as a lesson for someone that’s holding on to their partner even though the relationship is getting toxic. When you’re with him/her, you might think that you can’t handle being apart but you got to realize that you can.

Who knows, letting go might be the solution to all your burdens. Sometimes the people who chose to let go are the happiest. And maybe you can be one of them too. We got to let some things go and get out of our comfort zone. It takes time to heal, but all that time spent will be worth it in the end.
