Love Was

She was a
Nineteen in a varsity jersey
Cheering under Friday night lights
For the home team
Acted like I was watching
But I was too caught up in her eyes
And I thought I knew what love was

I met a
Twenty-three, working six days a week
Planning out the rest of her life
I was double-shifting
Penny-pinching- saving up to make her my wife
And I thought I knew what love was

I didn't know then
And I don't know now
It might take forever
To figure you out
You're a mystery baby
Behind every door
There's a change of season
I fall a little more
Every rise, every set, every trip around the sun
You got me rethinking what I thought love was

You know I've
Kissed every curve, touched every nerve
Baby, that's the beauty of time
For better or worse
I'm still learning- let a couple more stars align
Yeah, I thought I knew what love was

But I didn't know then
And I don't know now
It might take forever
To figure you out
You're a mystery baby
Behind every door
There's a change of season
I fall a little more
Every rise, every set, every trip around the sun
You got me rethinking what I thought love was
Love was
Yeah

When we're porch-swinging, 80 years young
Can't wait to look back on us
And see what love was
See what love was

But I won't know then
Like I don't know now
It might take forever
To figure you out
You're a mystery baby
Behind every door
There's a change of season
I fall a little more
Every rise, every set, every trip around the sun
Oh
Every rise, every set, every trip around the sun
Has got me rethinking what I thought love was
Has got me rethinking what I thought love was
