Our Song

Several people have asked why we have Then playing on our website so here is the story of how this song became our song.

Then by Brad Paisley

Let me tell you a little bit about our song, Then. When we first started dating I(Jana) changed Cody's ring tone to My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson. It's true...my life would have sucked without Cody, but the rest of the lyrics didn't make much sense for our relationship. We had been talking about how we needed a song and had joked about how the next song on the radio would be our song, but it was some dumb song about something completely unrelated to love.

We were driving in the car one day and I heard Then for the first time. As I listened to the lyrics, I fell in love with the song and thought it was the perfect song for me and Cody. Our relationship was still fresh and I didn't want to say anything for fear of...the unknown. So instead, I googled the lyrics on my cell phone and left them up so I could hear the song again. I got home that evening and read the lyrics to the song and absolutely loved it but had no idea how I could go about making a song I loved our song.

Here's the lyrics:

I remember, trying not to stare the night that I first met you
You had me mezmorized
And three weeks later, in the front porch light
taking forty-five minutes to kiss goodnight
I hadn't told you yet
but I thought I loved you then

Chorus

And now you're my whole life
now you're my whole world
I just can't believe the way I feel about you, girl
Like a river meets the sea,
stronger than it's ever been.
We've come so far since that day
And I thought I loved you then

And i remember, taking you back to right where I first met you,
You were so surprised
There were people around, but I didn't care
Got down on one knee right there once again,
I thought I loved you then

Chorus

And now you're my whole life
now you're my whole world
I just can't believe the way I feel about you, girl
Like a river meets the sea,
stronger than it's ever been.
We've come so far since that day
And I thought I loved you then

I could just see you, with a baby on the way
And I could just see you, when your hair is turning gray
What I can't see is how I'm ever gonna love you more
But I've said that before

And now you're my whole life
now you're my whole world
I just can't believe the way I feel about you, girl
We'll look back someday, at this moment that we're in
And I'll look at you and say
And I thought I loved you then
And I thought I loved you then
