George Strait - I'd Like to Have That One Back Lyrics

Artist: George Strait

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: Aaron Barker, Bill Shore, Rick West

I heard somebody speak her name
They said she was still lookin' fine
An' I could feel that same old flame
I once felt when she was mine

Always thought
That I was missin' somethin'
But I found out much too late
There'll never be another
Who loved me that way

I'd like to have that one back
I've never known someone so true
And a love that pure and sweet
Is one a man should never lose

If my lips had said, "I'm sorry"
She might have stopped right in her tracks
But now I find my poor heart saying
"I'd like to have that one back"

I can almost see her standin' there
Tears rollin' down her face
As she packed away her memories
In that old worn out suitcase

If I'd a' only known then
What I know now
I'd never open that door
Oh they just don't make hearts
Like hers anymore

I'd like to have that one back
I've never known someone so true
And a love so pure and sweet
Is one a man should never lose

And if my lips had said, "I'm sorry"
She might have stopped right in her tracks
I wouldn't hear my poor heart saying
"I'd like to have that one back"

I wouldn't hear my poor heart sayin'
"I'd like to have that one back"
