Summer after high school when we first met We'd make out in your Mustang to ready your head
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
In another life I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises, BS against the world
In another life I will make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
I was June, 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
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you
In another life I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises, BS against the world
In another life I will make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
The one that got away
