Katy Perry（左）和Russell Brand（右）Katy Perry所演唱的單曲"One That Got Away/離我而去的人"由Katy、Dr. Luke、Max Martin共同撰寫，這是一首講述舊情人的慢速流行民謠，Katy表示“當你向一個人承諾永遠後卻沒有去信守諾言，這是一個苦樂參半的故事。”這是Katy Perry翻唱自己的“The One That Got Away”雖然只是一個“The”的相隔，但是是與“The One That Got Away”完全不同的風格的慢速流行民謠。
是Katy Perry在與Russell Brand離婚後翻唱的，他們是於2011年12月30日離婚，諷刺的是在兩年前的12月31號，Russell Brand向Katy求婚。世事無常啊，Katy在這場婚姻中受盡了傷，，感情這東西沒有個對錯，不合適就只能慢慢磨合，如果磨合不來，也就只能分手了，分手了大家可以做朋友就做朋友，不能做朋友也不至於要去做仇人，你不放過那個人，何必呢？最後受到傷害的還是你自己，看開點吧，不是說誰沒有誰，誰就活不下去的，沒有那個人只是說你剛開始還不習慣而已，等習慣了沒有那個人的時候，你回過頭來看，會發現當初的自己是多么的幼稚，多么的可笑。在這首歌的字裡行間，更是有一種令人心碎的感覺。希望Katy可以早日從這段失敗的感情中走出來，早日找到屬於自己的愛情。
