Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Old fools dancing
Old fools who believe that
They can dance and sing
And fall in love
After all, love
[Verse 2]
Old wines, old shoes
Old lines, who'd have thought
They would ever reuse
Like I love you
Surprise, I love you
[Verse 3]
Flowers, long drive
Old fools, new lives
[Verse 4]
Old fools dancing
Old rules take the backseat
To new romancing
Long drives, flowers
Old fools, new lives
Written by: Stephin Merritt
