[B] That I used to take comfort from long before [E] I met you
And I saw a spark in her eyes, a [A] forgotten desire
[B] With a word or a touch I could have [E] rekindled that fire
But old flames can't hold a [A] candle to you
[B] And no one can light up the [E] night like you
Flickering embers of love I've [A] known one or two
[B] Old flames can't hold a [E] candle to you
[A] [E] Sometimes at night I think of old [A] lovers I've known
[B] And I remember how holding them helped me not [E] feel so alone
And I feel you beside me and even their [A] memories are known
[Abm] Like stars in the [B] night lost in the sweet light [E] hold a candle [A] to you
[B] And no one can light up the night [E] like you
Flickering embers of love [A] I've known one or two
