summer after high school when we first met
we make out in you mustang to radio head
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 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 bracketed
someone said you had your tattoo removed
saw you down town singing the blues
it's time to face the music
i'm no longer your muse
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 bracketed
can't replace you with
a million rings bracketed
i should told you what
you meant to me bracketed
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
