Story behind the song
Late one night there was a discussion about comfortable clothes and several of the comments made me think of this
Lyrics
"Old jeans" I realized this morning As I pulled on my old jeans They nearly fell to pieces there Came apart at the seams Faded white and ragged I remember when they were new I should have worn another pair But nothing else would do Chorus: Our love is an old pair of jeans That feels like extra skin Body shows through fabric Where it's starting to get thin The older that I get it seems The more my soul shows through Love that keeps my heart alive I can only get from you Reminded of a summer evening After the heat of the day Back before the kids came home And we still had things to say They might be old and dirty Unfit for a public display I've put them on 6 mornings now And they'll be worn again today One day when we're older And don't wear jeans at all We'll put on tracksuit trousers And walk the super mall Till that day arises And fashion slips away Faded soft and comfortable Is how I wish to stay
