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 had
You know it's kind of sad
Oh, whatever happened to old-fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
You know the kind of love
That my mama 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 plan
We say tomorrow will understand
If it all should end
And we're alone again
Oh, whatever happened to old-fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
You know the kind of love
That my mama 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
Whatever happened to old-fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
You know the kind of love
That my mama 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
