I'm Old Fashioned
Embracing Timeless Love: I'm Old Fashioned by Martin Taylor
Lyrics
I am not such a clever one
I acknowledge that I am not exceptionally clever
About the latest fads
I lack knowledge about the latest trends
I admit I was never one
I confess I have never been one
Adored by local lads
Popular or admired by local young men
Not that I ever try to be a saint
I don't make an effort to be morally upright
I'm the type that they classify as quaint
People consider me old-fashioned or charmingly old-fashioned
I'm old fashioned
Expressing a preference for traditional values
I love the moonlight
I have an affection for moonlight
I love the old fashioned things
I appreciate and love things from the past
The sound of rain
I find joy in the sound of rain
Upon a window pane
Especially raindrops on a window pane
The starry song that April sings
I enjoy the beautiful song that April sings, represented by stars
This year's fancies
Current trends and preferences are temporary
Are passing fancies
Temporary fads that come and go
But sighing sighs holding hands
True emotions expressed through gestures like holding hands
These my heart understands
My heart comprehends and values these sincere expressions
I know I'm old fashioned
Acknowledging again that I am old-fashioned
But I don't mind it
I'm comfortable with my old-fashioned nature
That's how I want to be
Expressing a preference for remaining old-fashioned
As long as you agree
As long as you also prefer traditional values
To stay old fashioned with me
Inviting someone to stay old-fashioned together
I'm old fashioned
Reiteration of being old-fashioned
But I don't mind it
Reiterating comfort with being old-fashioned
That's how I want to be
Reiterating a preference for remaining old-fashioned
As long as you agree
Reiterating the desire for shared traditional values
To stay old fashioned with me
Encouraging someone to stay old-fashioned together
Oh won't you stay old fashioned with me
Expressing a plea for the person to stay old-fashioned
Oh please stay old fashioned with me
A heartfelt request for the person to remain traditional
