Lyrics
I lost a woman I believed to be perfect for me
And you could replace her, but you're so much younger than me
Our lives are so different, our music is not the same kind
It's like we're just out of focus with no way to bring us in line
I'm like a man from another time
I'm old-fashion music, I'm old-fashion wine
A pilgrim like Jesus, but in no way divine
I'm like a man from another time
I may be reincarnated from a soldier who died in some war
With our thirty-year difference, I'm like born in some lifetime before
I'm old-fashion music, I'm old-fashion wine
I'm like a man from another time
Maybe reincarnated from a soldier who died in some war
With our thirty year difference, I'm like born in some lifetime before
I'm old-fashion music, I'm-old fashion wine
I'm like a man from another time
I'm like a man from another time
