Old Flames
Downtown tonight, I saw an old flame someone who
I used to take comfort from long before I met you
I caught a spark from her eye of forgotten desire
With a word or a touch I could have rekindled that fire
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
Sometimes at night, I think of the lovers I've known
And I remember how holding them
Helped me not feel so alone
Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone
Like the stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
Sometimes at night, I think of the lovers I've known
I remember how holding them
Helped me not feel so alone
Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone
Like stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
Old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
I used to take comfort from long before I met you
I caught a spark from her eye of forgotten desire
With a word or a touch I could have rekindled that fire
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
Sometimes at night, I think of the lovers I've known
And I remember how holding them
Helped me not feel so alone
Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone
Like the stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
Sometimes at night, I think of the lovers I've known
I remember how holding them
Helped me not feel so alone
Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone
Like stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
Old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up the night like you do
