the one that got away

Table of Contents

in another life, mengiris hati, bagaimana membayangkan kerinduan yang tak dapat di obati. entah siapa saja yang pernah merasakan ini, rindu yang menyesak, namun bisa juga di buat lagu dengan ritme yang agak renyah. sesak, mungkin hanya itu yang bisa di tuliskan. dalam keperihan dan tangis menurut pandangan mata. keterbatasan manusia dalam banyak pengetahuannya. berlindung di balik kata 'in another life'.
siapa yang tak ingin semua teresolusi pada tahun-tahun yang bisa di jangkau. janganlah mengakhiri hidup sebab di hati lain mungkin ada yang kesakitan. merasakan sakit atas kepergian yang tak kembali lagi. kemana harus mencari logika pun tak bisa menjangkau. terkecuali memang bisa menembus dimensi lain sehingga yang nyata bisa menjadi kasunyatan sesungguhnya. seperti dongeng ya :-)

the one that got away | katy perry

summer after high school when we first met 
we make-out in your 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 

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 

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 

but 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(x3) 
the one that got away 

bridge: 
all this money can't buy me a time machine (no) 
can't replace you with a million rings (no) 
i shoulda told you what you meant to me (whoa) 
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(x3) 

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
