| 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» |
