Today nobody writes letters to fall in love
Today flowers aren't seen anymore
Where has that romance gone?
And poems to win each other over don't exist anymore
Now only emails get sent
Nobody gives chocolates anymore
But I refuse to modernize, it's my way
And I confess that I'd like
To love you the old-fashioned way, give you my life
Fill you with roses, sing you songs, paint caresses on you
To love you the old-fashioned way, steal your smiles
Hold your hand, open the door for you, write you poems
And now loves last only an instant
But ours is the other way around
Every minute is important
But I refuse to modernize, it's my way
And I confess that I'd like
To love you the old-fashioned way, give you my life
Fill you with roses, sing you songs, paint caresses on you
To love you the old-fashioned way, steal your smiles
Hold your hand, open the door for you, write you poems
