Lyrics
0:11My old flame
0:16I can't even think of his name
0:22But it's funny now and then
0:25How my thoughts go flashing back again
0:29To my old flame
0:34My old flame
0:40My new lovers all seem so tame
0:45For I haven't met a gent
0:48So innocent or elegant
0:52As my old flame
0:59I've met so many men
1:01With fascinating ways
1:04A fascinating gaze in their eyes
1:10Some who sent me up to the skies
1:16But their attempts at love
1:20Were only imitations of
1:23My old flame
1:29I can't even think of his name
1:35But I'll never be the same
1:38Until I discover what became
1:42Of my old flame
2:36My old flame
2:42I can't even think of his name
2:47But I'll never be the same
2:51Until I discover what became
2:55Of my old flame
My old flame I can't even think of his name But it's funny now and then How my thoughts go flashing back again To my old flame My old flame My new lovers all seem so tame For I haven't met a gent So innocent or elegant As my old flame I've met so many men With fascinating ways A fascinating gaze in their eyes Some who sent me up to the skies But their attempts at love Were only imitations of My old flame I can't even think of his name But I'll never be the same Until I discover what became Of my old flame My old flame I can't even think of his name But I'll never be the same Until I discover what became Of my old flame
