Then Lyrics

I remember trying not to stare the night That I first met you, you had me mesmerized And three weeks later in the front porch light Taking 45 minutes just to kiss goodnight I hadn't told you yet but I thought I loved you then
But now you're my whole life, now you're my whole world And I just can't believe the way I feel about you girl Like a river meets the sea, stronger than it's ever been We've come so far since that day and I thought I loved you then
And I remember taking you back to right where I first met you You were so surprised There were people around but I didn't care I got down on one knee right there And once again I thought I loved you then
But now you're my whole life, now you're my whole world And I just can't believe the way I feel about you girl Like a river meets the sea, stronger than it's ever been We've come so far since that day and I thought I loved you then
I can just see you with a baby on the way I can just see you when your hair is turning gray What I can't see is how I'm ever gonna love you more But I've said that before
And now you're my whole life, now you're my whole world I just can't believe the way I feel about you girl We'll look back someday at this moment that we're in And I'll look at you and say, "And I thought I loved you then And I thought I loved you then"
