That Was Then Lyrics

That Was Then lyrics



Guess you never really know

Just what you've got

Until you finally realize

You could be gone

And know that I've been taking you for granted

For the longest time

All you want

Is someone who really cares

And I didn't even

Notice you were there

I promise I'll never ever

Make that same mistake not twice



That was then

This is now

Take some time to come around

All I wanna do

Is try again

Show you how

I know that it's all about

Givin' attention to you

I was a fool for way too long

But you wanna, could not see

That was then

This is now

Take some time to figure out

Love is all you need



Guess I never thought about it before

I was thinkin' of myself

And nothing more

Didn't even wanna try to find out

How you really feel (how you really feel)

Now I see

That I'm the lucky one

It's true

What we got

You know I never want to lose

I was trippin' in a fantasy

And missing what was real



That was then

This is now

Take some time to come around

All I wanna do

Is try again

Show you how

I know that it's all about

Givin' attention to you

I was a fool for way too long

But you wanna, could not see

That was then

This is now

Take some time to figure out

Love is all you need



I used to be someone

Who really only really though about

Themself and no one else

And you could tell baby

But as before

I understood

Be with you

'Cause something is good

Gotta let her know

And I want you to know



You're always my priority

And I wanna give you more

Than all the love you need

Took a little time

Now you know my fantasy

That you're my world (yeah)



I never want our love to fail

I'm gonna do whatever it takes

No I'm never gonna let it slip away

'Cause you're my girl, yes you are



That was then

This is now

Take some time to come around

All I wanna do

Is try again

Show you how

I know that it's all about

Givin' attention to you

I was a fool for way too long

But you wanna, could not see

That was then

This is now

Take some time to figure out

Love is all you need



You're always my priority

And I wanna give you more

Than all the love you need

Took a little time

Now you know my fantasy

That you're my world (yes you are)



I never want our love to fail

I'm gonna do whatever it takes

No I'm never gonna let it slip away

'Cause you're my girl, yes you are



That was then

This is now

Take some time to come around

All I wanna do

Is try again

Show you how

I know that it's all about

Givin' attention to you

I was a fool for way too long

But you wanna, could not see

That was then

This is now

Take some time to figure out

Love is all you need



Comin' around

And ready to show you how

I'm gonna change girl
