The One That Got Away
Katy Perry · Now That's What I Call Music! 81
Summer after high school, when we first met
We'd make out in your mustang, to Radiohead
And on my eigthteenth 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
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-Oh
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
The o-o-o-o-o-one
The o-o-o-o-o-one
The o-o-o-o-o-one
The one that got away
All this money can't buy me a time machine, No-Oh-Oh
Can't replace you with a million rings, No-Oh-Oh-Oh
I should have told you what you meant to me, Whoa-Oh-Oh-Oh
'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 o-o-o-o-o-one (the one)
The o-o-o-o-o-one (the one)
The o-o-o-o-o-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
