| We live in the modern age
|
| Where love is fast like a turning page
|
| In a magazine, we’ve hardly seen
|
| The friends we used to know
|
| They disappear, they come and go Like the times we’ve had
|
| It’s kind of sad
|
| Whatever happened to old fashioned love
|
| The kind that would see you through
|
| The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
|
| Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
|
| The kind that would last through the years
|
| Through the trials
|
| Through the smiles
|
| Through the tears
|
| Today is all we’ve planned
|
| We say tomorrow we’ll understand
|
| If it all should end
|
| We’d be alone again
|
| Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love
|
| The kind that would see you through
|
| The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
|
| Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
|
| The kind that would last through the years
|
| Through the trials
|
| Through the smiles
|
| Through the tears
|
| For now the tenderness
|
| Has been replaced
|
| With something less
|
| And it’s hard to find
|
| What we left behind
|
| Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love
|
| The kind that would see you through
|
| The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
|
| Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
|
| The kind that would last through the years
|
| Through the trials
|
| Through the smiles
|
| Through the tears.
