The One That Got Away

Summer after high school when we first met

We make up in your Mustang to Radiohead

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 loosing you

And in another life

You would be my girl

We keep for 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

You were dreaming I was your Johnny Cash

Never one we got 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 Boom

Its time to face the music

I'm no longer amused

And in another life

You would be my girl

We keep full 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 o o o o (X3)

The one that got away

All these money can't buy me a time machine (No o o o)

Can't replace you with a million rings (No o o o)

Shoulda told you what you meant to me (Wo o o o)

Cause now i pay the price

And in another life

You would be my girl

We keep for 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 o o o o (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
