Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I see them holding hands
Grey hair
Same gold bands
Laughing like they’re seventeen
Cart full of canned beans
You can’t fake that kind of ease
Decades deep
Still teasing
I’m out here swiping on a screen
Wonder what I’m missing
[Chorus]
I want that old school love
Coffee in chipped-up cups
Sunday papers
Sleepy hugs
Arguing then making up
I want that slow-burn kind
Read my heart
Not just my mind
Walk me home for the rest of my life
I want that old school love (mm)
[Verse 2]
I still keep handwritten notes
Folded corners
Dried-out rose
Grandma said “You’ll just know
When your hand fits in their coat”
Now it’s left on read at two
Half-truth plans that fall through
I’m saving all my soft for you
Whoever you are
Come through (hey)
[Chorus]
I want that old school love
Matching grooves in the couch
Inside jokes in a crowded house
Kiss my forehead when I doubt
I want that slow-burn kind
Kitchen dance at closing time
Sit with me when the days get rough
I want that old school love
[Bridge]
Teach me your favorite stories
I’ll learn every line
Let me see you in the morning
No filters
Just light
We don’t need perfect
Just honest enough
To grow into that
[Chorus]
I want that old school love
Hands all wrinkled and worn
Still reaching like it’s day one
Every night
Every dawn
I want that slow-burn kind
Side by side through the climb
If it takes a while
I won’t rush
I’m waiting on that old school love (yeah)
I’m waiting on that old school love
