The One That Got Away - Katy Perry


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.

I remember when it was summer after high school, when Zayn and I first met. We'd make out in his car, which was a mustang to RadioHead. 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.

I also remember when he used to steal his parents' liquor. Then we'd climb to the roof. Gaze into the stars and talk about our future, like we had a clue about what's going to happen. We never planned that one day, I'd be losing him.

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.

But in another life, I would still be his girl. We'd keep all the promises we made and be us against the world, just us. In another life I would make him stay, so I don't have to say that he was 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).
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.

It was like I was June and he was my Johnny Cash, we were never one without the other, we had a pact. Sometimes when I miss him I put those old records that he sent me on.

I heard that he got his tattoo removed, but I still have mine and I'm not planning on removing it any time soon. Someone said that they saw him downtown singing the blues. Now it's time to face the music, I'm not his muse anymore.

But 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.

In another life, non of this would've happened. And we'd still be together, happily. But I guess it wasn't meant to be.

All this money can't buy me a time machine (Nooooo).
Can't replace you with a million rings (Nooooo).
I should've told you what you meant to me (Whoa).
'Cause now I pay the price.

All this money I've got can't buy me a time machine. Oh, how I wish it could. I would turn back time and fix all the bad things that happened, fix us.

People tell me that I can replace him. That I can get over him. No, I can't. I can never replace him with million rings, nothing can replace him. He was my treasure.

I should've told him what he actually meant to me, now I have to 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 o-o-o-o-o-one.
The o-o-o-o-o-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.

I guess it wasn't meant to be. And that kills me. I'm slowly dying inside.
