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 only known then what I know now

I'd never opened that door

Oh, they just don't make hearts like hers anymore

I'd like to have that one back

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
