Summer after high school,
When we first met
We hand-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, you will be mt 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
No 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

In another life, you will be mt 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

Ohhh, to say The one that got away
The one that got away
