(+) 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 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
Oh, yeah, ooh
Sometimes at night,
I think of old lovers I've known
And I remember how holding them
helped me not feel so alone
(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
Flickerin' embers of love
I've known one or two
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
Oh, yeah
