[F#] [F#m] .
[C#] Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, [F#] someone who .
[G#] I used to take comfort from long before I [C#] met you.
I caught a spark from his eyes, a forgotten [F#] desire.
With.
[G#] a word or a touch, I could have rekindled [C#] that fire .
But old flames can't hold a candle [F#] to you .
[G#] No one can light up the night [C#] like you do .
Lickering embers of love, I've known [F#] one or two .
But .
[G#] old flames can't hold a candle [C#] to you .

Sometimes at night, I think of old lovers .
[G] I've known .

Feel so alone.
Then I feel you beside me, and even the memories .
[G] are gone .
Like .
[A] stars in the night, lost in the sweet light [D] of dawn .
But old flames can't hold a candle [G] to you .
No .
[A] one can light up the night like [D] you do.
