Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who
I used to take comfort from long before I met you
And I caught a spark in her eyes of forgotten desire
With a word or a touch, I could have rekindled the fire
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up my 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
And remember how holding them made me not feel so alone
Then I feel you beside me and even their memories are gone
And 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
I used to take comfort from long before I met you
And I caught a spark in her eyes of forgotten desire
With a word or a touch, I could have rekindled the fire
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
No one can light up my 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
And remember how holding them made me not feel so alone
Then I feel you beside me and even their memories are gone
And 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
