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 magnificent or elegant
As my old flame
I've met so many
who had fascinating ways
A fascinating gaze
in their eyes
Some who took 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
<Interlude>
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
