[C#]
[F#] [F#m]
[C#] Downtown tonight I saw an old friend, [F#] someone [F#] who
[F#m]
[G#] I used to take comfort from long before [C#] I met you
I caught a spark from his eyes, a forgotten [F#] desire
[F#]
[G#] With a word or a touch I could have rekindled [C#] that fire
No flame can hold a candle [F#] to you
[G#] No [G#] one can light up the night [C#] like you do
[A#m]
[C#] Lickering embers of love are
[F#] two
[G#] No flame can hold a candle [C#] to you
[F#] [A]
[D]
[G] [D]
Sometimes at night I think of old lovers
[G] I've known
I
[A] remember how holding them helped me not feel so [D] alone
[B] Then I feel you beside me and even the memories [G] of gold
[A] Like stars in the night lost in the sweet light [D] of dawn
[B]
[D] No flame can hold a candle [G] to you
[A] No one can light up the night [D] like you do
[Bm]
[D] Lickering embers of [D] love
[G] are two
[A] No flame can hold a candle [D] to you
[E]
[A] No flame can hold a candle [D] to you
[G] [Gm] [D]
