Old Flames Can't Hold A Candle To You Lyrics

Dolly Parton

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 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 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
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 Old flames can't hold a candle to you Old flames can't hold a candle to you Mmm
