DOWNTOWN TONIGHT
I SAW AN OLD FRIEND
SOMEONE WHO
I USED TO TAKE COMFORT FROM
LONG BEFORE I MET YOU
I CAUGHT A SPARK
FROM HER EYE
OF FORGOTTEN DESIRE
WITH A WORD OR A TOUCH, LORD
I COULD HAVE REKINDLED
THAT FIRE
BUT 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
SOMETIMES AT NIGHT
I THINK OF THE LOVERS
I'VE KNOWN
AND I REMEMBER
HOW HOLDING THEM
HELPED ME
NOT 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
BUT 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
SOMETIMES AT NIGHT
I THINK OF THE LOVERS
I'VE KNOWN
AND I REMEMBER
HOW HOLDING THEM
HELPED ME
NOT 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
BUT 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
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
