Like a River Meets the Sea

I remember, 

Trying not to stare the night that I first met you 
You had me mezmorized 
And three weeks later, in the front porch light 
taking forty-five minutes to kiss goodnight 
I hadn't told you yet 
but 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 
Got down on one knee right there 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 could just see you, 

With a baby on the way 
And I could 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 

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 
I thought I loved you then
