Les paroles de la chanson
« That was then »
Jesse Mc Cartney
Guess you never really know just what you’ve got
’til you finally realize she could be gone
I know that I’ve been taking you for granted
For the longest time
All you wanted was someone who really cares
And I didn’t even notice you were there
I promise that I’ll never ever make that same mistake
Not twice...
CHORUS
That was then..this is now
Took some time to come around
All I wanna do...
Is try again...show you how
I know that it’s all about
Giving attention to you
I was a fool for way to long
What you wanted, I could not see
That was then...this is now
Took some time to figure out
Love is all you need
Guess I never really thought about it before
I was thinking of myself, and nothing more
Didn’t even wanna try to find out
How you really feel
Now I see that I’m the lucky one, it’s true
And what we’ve got to know I never want to lose
I was trippin’ in a fantasy...
And missing what was real
CHORUS
I used to be someone
Who only really thought about themselves
And no one else and you could tell baby
But that’s before I understood
That when we’ve got something this good
Gotta let her know...
And I want to you know
You’re always my priority
And I wanna give more than all the love you need
Took a little time...
But now you know I finally see
That you’re my world
I never want our love to fade ready, willing...
And I’m gonna do whatever it takes
No, I’m never gonna let it slip away
’cause you’re my girl
CHORUS
’til you finally realize she could be gone
I know that I’ve been taking you for granted
For the longest time
All you wanted was someone who really cares
And I didn’t even notice you were there
I promise that I’ll never ever make that same mistake
Not twice...
CHORUS
That was then..this is now
Took some time to come around
All I wanna do...
Is try again...show you how
I know that it’s all about
Giving attention to you
I was a fool for way to long
What you wanted, I could not see
That was then...this is now
Took some time to figure out
Love is all you need
Guess I never really thought about it before
I was thinking of myself, and nothing more
Didn’t even wanna try to find out
How you really feel
Now I see that I’m the lucky one, it’s true
And what we’ve got to know I never want to lose
I was trippin’ in a fantasy...
And missing what was real
CHORUS
I used to be someone
Who only really thought about themselves
And no one else and you could tell baby
But that’s before I understood
That when we’ve got something this good
