Dolly Parton – Before I Met You lyrics
I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time
But that was before I met you
I never saw one that I wanted for mine
But that was before I met you

I thought I was swinging the world by the tail
I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved
But that was before I met you

I thought I'd stay single always be free
But that was before I met you
I said that no sweet thang could ever hold me
But that was before I met you

I thought I was swinging the world by the tail
I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved
But that was before I met you

That was before I met you
