Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Why do I love him? He don't love back
When I call his name, he turns his back
The weather is growing cold and I want him
Back again
[Verse 2]
I kinda know this other guy, but he's a rather
Old enough to be my father
So he's not the one for me
'Cause I fancy younger men
[Verse 3]
I'm at a loss
Not a coincidence he left me because
My old man was ready to love me like the woman that I am
[Verse 4]
Ooh, so is it such a problem if he's old?
As long as he does whatever he is told
I'm glad that it's just my heart that he stole
And left my dignity alone
[Verse 5]
When men are old, we landed our first kiss
I slurred my words, but he pretended not to notice
And then he sat down to play
My heart sang a symphony
[Verse 6]
So far so swimmingly
I'm glad I got out to find my fish in that sea
And we've come so far
So who gives a damn about the ages we are?
[Verse 7]
Ooh, so is it such a problem if he's old?
As long as he does whatever he is told
I'm glad that it's just my heart that he stole
And left my dignity alone
[Verse 8]
So is it such a problem if he's old?
As long as he does whatever he is told
I know that I'm gonna survive the December cold
With somebody to retrieve my long lost soul
With somebody to retrieve my long lost soul
