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’ve had
It’s kind of sad
Whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma 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’ve planned
We say tomorrow we’ll understand
If it all should end
We’d be alone again
Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma 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
Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma 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.

A great song is a song that never loses its affect on the heart whenever you hear it and stands the test time . Love this song and BJ Thomas ! His voice and singing ability are amazing still!
Old fashioned love is still there just people have changed and not for the better. "Whatever happened to the old fashioned days"? Glad i was part of them. Memories last a lifetime. Thanks mama for everything
Back during a time when you just had to catch it on the radio and reel in it for 3 and half minutes. I was a kid with nil cash to buy the record, let alone get to a record store.
