Downtown tonight,i saw an old friend,someone who |
|
I use to take comfort from long before i met you |
|
I caught a spark from his eyes of forgotten desire |
|
With a word,or a touch,i could have rekindled that fire |
|
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 konwn 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 |
|
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 |
