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.
    Chorus:
  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.
    Chorus:
  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."
