The One That Got Away Lyrics - The Voice

Summer after high school when we first met 

We make out in your Mustang to Radio head 

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 losing you 

And in another life I would be your girl 

We keep all 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 

I was dreaming you were my Johnny Cash 

Never one, we got the other, we made a pact 

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 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 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 these money can't buy me a time machine, no 

Can't replace you with a million rings, no 

I should've told you what you meant to me, whoa 

'Cause now I pay the price 

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 

The one, the one, the one, the one 

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
