I'm Old Fashioned
Embracing Timeless Romance: 'I'm Old Fashioned' by Chet Baker
Lyrics
I am not such a clever one about the latest fads
I lack knowledge about the latest trends.
I admit I was never one adored by local lads
I acknowledge that I was never popular among local boys.
Not that I ever tried to be a saint
I never made an effort to be exceptionally virtuous.
I'm the type that they classify as quaint
I am often regarded as old-fashioned or peculiar.
I'm old fashioned, I love the moonlight
I appreciate the romantic atmosphere created by moonlight.
I love the old fashioned things
I cherish traditional and timeless things.
The sound of rain upon a window pane
I enjoy the soothing sound of rain hitting a window.
The starry song that April sings
I find beauty in the celestial melody sung by April.
This years fancies are passing fancies
Current trends are fleeting, unlike enduring emotions.
But sighing sighs, holding hands
Expressing love through gestures like sighs and holding hands.
These my heart understands
These simple romantic expressions resonate with my heart.
I'm old fashioned but I don't mind it
I embrace being old-fashioned without reservations.
That's how I want to be
I am content with being traditional as long as you are too.
As long as you agree
Our agreement to remain old-fashioned together.
To stay old fashioned with me.
Emphasizing the desire for a shared commitment to tradition.
I'm old fashioned but I don't mind it
Reiteration of being comfortable with an old-fashioned lifestyle.
That's how I want to be
Expressing the preference for a traditional approach to life.
As long as you agree
Affirming the desire for mutual agreement on an old-fashioned life.
To stay old fashioned with me.
Encouraging a commitment to staying traditional together.
