The Singer and the Songwriter - What a Difference a Melody Makes

Old Fashioned

I don't want love
That's old fashioned
I want a modern romance

I don't want love
That's old fashioned
I want a modern
Romance

Don't want no courting suitors knocking at my door
Don't want no Romeo to make me wonder wherefore
Wherefore wherefore wherefore wherefore
I want you to love me, honey, and move in with me
Save up a little money, find ourselves a place by the sea
The sea the sea the sea the sea

I ain't got the time to be wined and dined
I'm tired of lovin' you in ol' black and white

Not saying we oughta get married or settle down
But we've got a good thing going, why mess it up now?
Why make the same decisions our parents made?
These times they are a-changing, let's make our own mistakes
Mistakes mistakes mistakes mistakes

Who's got the time nowadays?
Let's bring our love into the modern age

I don't want love that's old fashioned
Give me a modern romance

I don't want love that's old fashioned
Give me a modern romance
Romance romance romance romance
Romance
