Then

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 to kiss goodnight I hadn't told you yet, but I thought I loved you then 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 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 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 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 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 grey What I can't see is how I'm ever going to 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
