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"
