[0-1:59.800]Old Flames Can't Hold a Candle to You - Merle Haggard
[00:00.550]Downtown tonight I saw an old friend someone who
[00:11.290]I use to take comfort from long before I met you
[00:23.030]I caught a spark from his eyes of forgotten desire
[00:33.480]With a word or a touch I could have rekindled that fire
[00:42.250]Old flames can't hold a candle to you
[00:53.200]No one can light up the night like you do
[01:04.420]Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
[01:15.360]But old flames can't hold a candle to you
[01:32.210]Sometimes at night I think of old lovers I've known
[01:43.170]I remember how holding they helped me not feel so alone
[01:54.240]Then I feel you beside me and even their memories are gone
[02:05.100]Like stars in the night lost in the sweet light of dawn
[02:13.920]Old flames can't hold a candle to you
[02:25.020]No one can light up the night like you do
[02:36.230]Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
[02:47.160]But old flames can't hold a candle to you
[03:20.510]Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
[03:31.380]But old flames can't hold a candle to you
