Quizás pensé que verte

Quizás pensé que verte

I've noticed I often have difficulty in differentiating between de and que in spoken language. They sound really similiar to me. Anyways, I can't if the singer in a song is saying:

Quizás pensé que verte..

or

Quizás pensé de verte..

I assume the correct spanish is what he'd be singing, but I'm not 100% sure which sentence is correct. I think the second sentence would be correct spanish, but to me it really sounds more like he's saying the first sentence. Then of course there's the possibility I'm totally mishearing the entire sentence altogether lol..

Anyways, long story short, which sentence is right?

Pensé, de verte caído, ¿Qué haría?

Pensé en verte, porque te echaba de menos.

Pensé que verte sería doloroso.

Your assumption is right; the second sentence is correct if this all there is in the sentence.

However, the first could be right if it were something like, ie: Quizás pensé que verte podría ser muy doloroso después de tanto.

Context is everything.
