Old Flames (Can't Hold a Candle to You)
Downtown tonight, I saw and old friend, someone who,
I use to take comfort from long before I met you.
I caught a spark from his eyes,
a forgotten desire.
With a word or a touch I could have rekindled the 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 old lovers I've known.
I remember how holding them helped me not feel so alone.
Well I feel you beside me and even the memories are gone.
Like stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn.
Old flames can't hold a candle to you.
No one can light up the night like you do.
Flickering embers of love, I known one or two,
but old flames can't hold a candle to you.
Old flames can't hold a candle to you.
I use to take comfort from long before I met you.
I caught a spark from his eyes,
a forgotten desire.
With a word or a touch I could have rekindled the 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 old lovers I've known.
I remember how holding them helped me not feel so alone.
Well I feel you beside me and even the memories are gone.
Like stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn.
Old flames can't hold a candle to you.
No one can light up the night like you do.
Flickering embers of love, I known one or two,
but old flames can't hold a candle to you.
Old flames can't hold a candle to you.
