[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

I kind of know this other guy
But he's rather old enough to be my father
So he's not the one for me 'cause I fancy younger men

I'm at a loss
Not a coincidence he left me because
My older man was ready to love me like the woman that I am

[Chorus]
Is it such a problem if he is 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 2]
When in Rome, we landed our first kiss
I slurred my words but he pretended not to notice
And then he set down to play
My heart sang a symphony
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?
[Chorus]
Is it such a problem if he is 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

[Outro]
Is it such a problem if he is 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
