The Old Fashioned Way lyrics

Dance in the old fashioned way.

Won't you stay in my arms?

Just melt against my skin

And let me feel your heart.

Don't let the music win

By dancing far apart.

Come close where you belong.

Let's hear our secret song.

Dance in the old fashioned way.

Won't you stay in my arms?

And we'll discover heights

We never knew before

If we just close our eyes

And dance around the floor

That gay old fashioned way,

That makes me love you more.

Come closer, even closer if you can.

Forget about the others.

It's nice to be like this, cheek to cheek

In the old fashioned way.

No . . . ah . . . oh yes, I know...

I know that we didn't sing like we used to do

maybe 10 or 15 or 20 years ago

but you see, they weren't wrong.

Time passes. Passion changes

but love stays, stays beautiful, warm,

stays eternal . . . mmm . . . yeah?]

Dance in the old fashioned way.

Won't you stay in my arms?

And we'll discover heights

We never knew before

If we just close our eyes

And dance around the floor.

That gay old fashioned way,

That makes me love you more.

Mmm...
