The One That Got Away

Lyrics

Summer after high school, when we first met
 We'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
 And on my 18th birthday, we got matching tattoos
 Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof
 Talk about our future like we had a clue
 Never planned that one day I'd be losing you
 In another life, I would be your girl
 We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world
 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
 I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
 Never one without the other, we made a pact
 Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on
 Someone said you had your tattoo removed
 Saw you downtown singing the blues
 Never planned that one day I'd be losing you
 In another life, I would be your girl
 And we'd keep all our promises, be us against the world
 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
 All this money can't buy me a time machine, no
 I can't replace you with a million rings, no
 I should've told you what you meant to me, no
 'Cause now I pay the price
 'Cause in another life, I would be your girl
 We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world
 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 that got away, no
 The one that got away
