I'd Like To Have That One Back Lyrics

George Strait I'd Like To Have That One Back

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

Always thought that I was missing something
But I found out much too late
There’ll never be another who’ll love 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
And 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 standing there
Tears rolling down her face
As she packed away her memories
In that old worn out suitcase

If I’d have only known then what I know now
I’d never open that door
Oh they just don’t make hearts like hers any more

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 saying
I’d like to have that one back
