📜 Lyrics
Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend someone who
I used to take comfort from, long before I met you
I caught a spark from his (D7)eyes a 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 old 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
I used to take comfort from, long before I met you
I caught a spark from his (D7)eyes a 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 old 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
