I do love those old movies-thought I would write about them.
Old Black and Whites © 2016 Cindy Prince
I knew she was romantic When I saw her eyes light up She saw another gal getting flowers Some pretty yellow buttercups
There was a sort of wistfulness In her perfectly small sigh Right then I think I loved her And I wanted to be her guy
Her features were so delicate She seemed such a classic beauty So I walked up next to her And brought up old movies
Chorus Right away there was such passion She said, 'Oh I love those old black and whites!" And, "Cary Grant was so handsome!" "Audrey Hepburn-just so nice!" She gushed about Casablanca And An Affair to Remember Loved the romance and the humor In Rock Hudson's Come September
From the first conversation Began a classical romance I'm so grateful for all those movies And I'm glad I took the chance
For our wedding she wore Audrey She had buttercups in her hair Our ceremony was filmed in black and white Such a romantic sublime affair
Repeat Chorus

Good write Cindy!...I do wish you would have used that hook more though, it's a killer one in my opinion "old black and whites"
Regardless I enjoyed this and the nostalgic references. Nice work

There are many great black and white movies, but today's young people choose to ignore them. Good writing.

Thanks all. Jim, my kids love old black and whites-maybe because they were raised on them.
