At the Time

I told him that I loved him
'Cause I loved him at the time
And I told him that I didn't want any other lips touchin' mine
I whispered love your kisses are sweeter than the wine
But I'd never tasted champagne at the time

At the time I didn't know your name
And I'd never seen your face
At the time I'd never lost myself
In your tender warm embrace

If you've never had filet mignon
Peanut butter taste just fine
And that's the way it was when I loved him at the time

When I found you I started hearing
Pretty music I'd never heard
And quietly when we spoke of love
It was like I'd learned a brand new word

I once thought I'd seen everything but till I met you I was blind
And I wonder now was I even born at the time

At the time I didn't know your name
And I'd never seen your face
At the time I'd never lost myself
In your tender warm embrace

If you've never had a T-bone steak
Saltine crackers taste just fine
And that's the way it was when I loved him at the time

If you've never been to Paris, France
Big Spring Texas will suit you fine
And that's the way I was when I loved him at the time
