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
