Summer after high school when we first met
Make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my 18th birthday
We got matching tattoos
Used to steal your parent's 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
I would be your boy
We'd 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
You were June and I was your 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, singin' the blues
It's time to face the music
I'm no longer your muse
But in another life
I would be your boy
We'd 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
All this money can't buy me a time machine, whoa
Can't replace you with a million rings, whoa
I should've told you what you meant to me, whoa
Cause now I pay the price
In another life
I would be your boy
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
In another life
I would be your boy
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
