The One That Got Away

Summer after high school when we first met
We hang out in a mustang to radiohead
And on my 18th birthday,
We got matching tattoos

Used to go out after midnight
And climb to the roof
Talk about our future
Like we had a clue

Never planned that one day
I'd be losing you.

And in another life
I would be your girl
We'd 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

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, woah

Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown, singing the blues
It's time to face the music
I'm no longer your muse

And in another life
I would be your girl
We'd 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 [x3]

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, woah
'Cause now I pay the price

And in another life
I would be your girl
We'd 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 [x3]

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
