I heard somebody speak her name they said she still was looking fine
And I could feel that same old flame I once felt when she was mine
Always thought that I was missin' 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, never known someone so true
And a love that pure and sweet is what 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 rollin' 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, I've never known someone so true
And a love so pure and sweet is what 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
