You know it's crazy, cuz
Nights like this will start out with no private party
You sneak me in your mom's house
I know I might've steal my dream, but
Really were tryin' to spill my heart out
I mean, it started as a conversation
Really tryin' to get my thoughts out
But then we make moves and we make plans
Had to whole thing mapped out
See, you were gonna go to college
And pay for bills, I'd figure a job out
And you knew I had to up to ten days gone
Time moved on and you switched phones
Hopefully reincarnation
Bringin' us back to the place we belong

Summer after high school when we first met
We'd 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 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

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, 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
