I'm Old Fashioned
Embracing Timeless Love: I'm Old Fashioned by Carol Robbins
Lyrics
I am not such a clever one
I lack cleverness in keeping up with the latest trends.
About the latest fads
I'm not well-versed in or interested in current fads.
I admit I was never one
I confess that I've never been the favorite of local boys.
Adored by local lads
I wasn't adored or admired by the local young men.
Not that I ever try to be a saint
I don't strive to be a saint or perfect.
I'm the type that they classify as quaint
People see me as old-fashioned or charmingly out-of-date.
I'm old fashioned
I embrace being old-fashioned.
I love the moonlight
I have a fondness for moonlight.
I love the old fashioned things
I appreciate traditional and classic things.
The sound of rain
I enjoy the soothing sound of rain on a window pane.
Upon a window pane
I find beauty in the starry song that April sings.
The starry song that April sings
I recognize that current trends are fleeting.
This year's fancies
I understand that this year's fancies are temporary.
Are passing fancies
Sentimental gestures like sighs and holding hands are timeless.
But sighing sighs holding hands
My heart appreciates these timeless expressions of affection.
These my heart understands
I comprehend and value old-fashioned romantic gestures.
I know I'm old fashioned
I acknowledge and embrace my old-fashioned nature.
But I don't mind it
I don't mind being old-fashioned; it's my preference.
That's how I want to be
Being old-fashioned is how I want to be.
As long as you agree
As long as you agree, I'm content with being old-fashioned.
To stay old fashioned with me
Requesting agreement to stay old-fashioned together.
I'm old fashioned
Reiteration of embracing an old-fashioned lifestyle.
But I don't mind it
Reiteration that being old-fashioned is acceptable.
That's how I want to be
Reiteration of a preference for an old-fashioned lifestyle.
As long as you agree
Expressing contentment if the partner agrees to be old-fashioned.
To stay old fashioned with me
Request for the partner to stay old-fashioned together.
Oh won't you stay old fashioned with me
Expressing a desire for the partner to remain old-fashioned.
Oh please stay old fashioned with me
An earnest plea for the partner to stay old-fashioned.
