Katy Perry - The One That Got Away lyrics

Summer after high school, when we first met
We'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my eighteenth birthday
We got matching tattoos
Used to steal your parents' liquor
And climb to the roof
Talked 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'd 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, 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

But in another life, I would be your girl
We'd 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
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'd 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)
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
