63.I'd Like To Have That One Back

Written:Bill Shore/Aaron Barker/Rick West

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...''
