Sampling Katy Perry’s 2010 hit “The One That Got Away”, Anthony reminisces on his past relationship with Isabella. He hopes that she will come back to a better version of him, despite admitting that she’s much better off without him in his 2020 song with Jared Krumm, “Can We Please Go Back”.
[Verse 1: Katy Perry]
Summer after high school when we first met
We'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my eighteenth 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 on one day, I'd be losing you
[Chorus: Katy Perry]
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 won't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
[Verse 2: ANTH]
Okay
Any time, any day, any night I just wonder whеre you are
But I don't really carе cause I know that you'll always have my heart
And I know that you're with him but I just wanted to let you know
Oh Woah
Ay, ay, that you know I'm missing you babe
Each and like every day
No matter the time or the place
Maybe we just needed space
Or maybe just needed a break
But either way, if we are both meant to be
Then we'll let it be, and maybe one day we will see
The reason that you had to leave was so you could come back a better me
Please
[Chorus: Katy Perry]
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 won't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
