"then"

I went to a friend's wedding tonight. It was one of the best weddings I've ever been too; they were both so incredibly thrilled.

On the way home, I listened to this song and got more giddy than I've been in months.
I love it. "[heart], boyfriend" hurry it up.

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.


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 now 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
And 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.


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.
