I'm Old Fashioned
Embracing Timeless Love: I'm Old Fashioned by Stacey Kent
Lyrics
I am not such a clever one about the latest fads
I am not well-versed or knowledgeable about current trends.
I admit I was never one adored by local lads
I acknowledge that I've never been admired or favored by local boys.
Not that I ever tried to be a saint
I didn't actively try to behave perfectly.
I'm the type that they classify as quaint
I belong to a category of people seen as charmingly old-fashioned or out-of-date.
I'm old fashioned, I love the moonlight
I appreciate and cherish romantic moments under the moonlight.
I love the old fashioned things
I have an affection for traditional or classic 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 poetic melody associated with April's stars.
This years fancies are passing fancies
Current trends are temporary and fleeting, unlike timeless romantic gestures like sighing and holding hands.
But sighing sighs, holding hands
Expressing emotions through sighs and physical affection is something my heart comprehends and values.
These my heart understands
These gestures resonate deeply with my emotions.
I'm old fashioned but I don't mind it
I embrace being old-fashioned without feeling troubled by it.
That's how I want to be
I'm content being this way.
As long as you agree
As long as you also agree to remain traditional.
To stay old fashioned with me.
To be in a relationship with me, you should embrace old-fashioned values.
I'm old fashioned but I don't mind it
I'm comfortable with my old-fashioned inclinations.
That's how I want to be
It's my preferred way of living.
As long as you agree
As long as you're also willing to maintain traditional values.
To stay old fashioned with me.
To be together, you should share my appreciation for old-fashioned ways.
