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 to kiss goodnight,

I hadn't told you yet

I thought I loved you then

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 suprised

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

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 gonna love you more

But I've said that before

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
