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

Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who
I use to take comfort from long before I met you
I saw a spark in his eyes of forgotten desire
With a word, or a touch, I could've 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
Remember 'em holding them helps me not feel so alone
And 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
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or two
Old flames can't hold a candle to you, mmm
