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 parent´s liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about the 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 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...woe
Someone said you had your tatoo removed
Saw you down town singin the blues
It´s time to face the music I´m no longer your muse

But in another life I would be your girl
We 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 the one the one
The one that got away
All this money can´t buy me a time machine, no
Can´t replace you with a million rings. no
I shoulda told you what you meant to me. woe
Cause now I pay the price.

In another life I would be your girl
We 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, the one, the one

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
