At The Time Lyrics - Singles - Jean Shepard

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
