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 the 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 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.

Nevermind, I´ll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don´t forget me, I beg
I remember you said :
« Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead »
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.

In another life I would be your girl
We 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.
