   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 helped load my patient onto the stretcher and into the ambulance. Today is my first day working for this firehouse. Don't get me wrong i've been a paramedic for 5 years but I've never worked in Chicago. I moved out of Chicago when I first became a paremedic but I recently just moved back.
"The closet hospital is Chicago Gaffney Medical center, I'll drive." My partner said before getting in the drivers seat. I climbed into the back with the patient.
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
                   
We got the patient out of the ambulance and into the hospital.
"What do we got?" A brown skinned nurse asked us. "Female, mid 30s her water broke after she fell down the stairs. Husbands behind us." I answered.
She nodded.
"April, Natalie trauma 1."
I saw two girls jog over and I couldn't believe who one of them was.
"Y/n?"
"April?"
       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, woah

"Come on y/n we have work to do." My partner said basically dragging me out of the hospital.
Once we got in the ambulance my partner asked, "What was that about?"
"Oh April and I?"
"Yes."
"Well me and her had a thing when we were younger. I guess you could say she was the one that got away."
She nodded.
   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 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 one, the one, the one
Ohh the one, the one, the one, the one, the one

After shift I went back to the hospital.
"Hi how can I help you?" The lady at the front desk asked.
"Can I see April Sexton?"
"Yeah, have a seat I'll page her."
I nodded and sat down.
  All this money can't buy me a time machine,
                                        no
     Can't replace you with a million rings, no
     I should'a told you what you meant to me,
                                         woah
                      'Cause now I pay the price
             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
                                  The one...

I saw April walk out. The lady at the desk pointed her to me.
"What do you want y/n?"
"I wanted to tell you how much a I miss you and I wanted to see if you wanted to get back together?"
"No, I don't. Not only do I have a boyfriend, but you cheated on me. I broke up with you for a reason. I have better things to do. Goodbye."
      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
