Jesse McCartney
That Was Then (Live Performance)
[Interlude]
You guys ready to rock?
Let's do it

[Verse 1]
Guess you never really know just what you've got
Till 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 attеntion to you
I was a fool for way too long, what you wanted
But could not see that was then, this is now
Took some timе to figure out love is all you need

[Verse 2]
Guess I never 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 you know I never want to lose
I was trippin' in a fantasy and missing what was real
[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 too long, what you wanted
But could not see that was then, this is now
Took some time to figure out love is all you need

[Verse 3]
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 you've got something this good
Gotta let her know and I want you to know

[Bridge]
You're always my priority and I wanna give more
That 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
Yes you are

[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 too long, what you wanted
But could not see that was then, this is now
Took some time to figure out love is all you need
[Bridge]
You're always my priority and I wanna give more
That all the love you need, took a little time but now you know
I finally see that you're my world, yes you are
I never want our love to fade, ready willing and I'm gonna do whatever it takes, no, cause you're my girl, yes you are!

[Outro]
Comin' around and ready to show you how
I'm gonna change girl, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, oh, ooh, whoa
Ohh, whoa, ooh, ooh, whoa, whoa
Love is all you need
