The One That Got Away

Summer after high school

when we first met

We make out in your Mustang

 to Radio head

 And on my 18th birthday

we got that chain tattoos

Used to steal your parents'

liquor and climb to the roof

Talk about our future

like we had a clue

Never plan that one day

I'd be losing you

And in another life

 I would be your girl

We keep all our promises,

 be us against the world

And in other life

I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you

were the one that got away

 The one that got away
I was dreaming you were my Johnny Cash Never one,

 we got the other,

we made a pact

 Sometimes when I miss you,

 I put those records on,

whoa Someone said you had your tattoo removed

Saw you downtown singing the blues

It's time to face the music,

 I'm longer your muse
And in another life

 I would be your girl

We keep all our promises,

 be us against the world

And in another life,

 I would make you stay

 So I don't have to say you were the one that got away

 The one that got away
The one, the one, the one

 The one that got away
All these money can't buy me a time machine,

 no Can't replace you with a million rings,

no I should've told you what you meant to me,

whoa 'Cause now I pay the price

In another life

I would be your girl

We keep all our promises,

 be us against the world

 And in another life,

 I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away

The one that got away
The one, the one, the one, the one
And in another life

 I would make you stay

So I don't have to say

you were the one that got away

 The one that got away
