Old Flames (Can't Hold a Candle to You)

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 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 Flickerin' embers of love, I've known one or two Old flames can't hold a candle to you Sometimes at night, I think of old lovers I've known I remember how holdin' them helped me not feel so alone (feel so alone) When 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 Flickerin' embers of love, I've known one or two Old flames can't hold a candle to you Old flames can't hold a candle to you Mm-mm-mm
