Summer after high school when we first met We make 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 And in another life I would be your girl We 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 pack Sometimes when I miss you
I put those records on (whoa) 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 keep all our promises Be us against the world
And In another life I would make you staySo I don't have to say
You were the one that got away The one that got away
