OLD FLAMES CAN’T HOLD A CANDLE TO YOU

C F

Downtown tonight I saw an old friend someone who…

G7 C

I used to take comfort from long before I met you

C C7 F

I caught a spark from her eyes a forgotten desire

G7 C

With a word or a touch I could have rekindled that fire

C F

But old flames can't hold a candle to you

G7 C

No one can light up the night like you do

C7 F

Flickering embers of love I've known one or two

G7 C


F

Sometimes at night I think of old lovers I've known

G7 C

I remember how holding them helped me not feel so alone

C C7 F

Then I feel you beside me and even their memories are gone

G7 C

Like stars in the night lost in the sweet light of dawn

C F


G7 C

No one can light up the night like you do

Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
