I wrote this song after having lunch with a friend. We were talking about old loves and wondering what ever happened to........ A few weeks later my high school sweetheart walked into one of my gigs after 20 years! How nice it was to share the story and the song with him. We're still friends :-)
OLD FLAME
I thought I saw you the other day at the place where we used to meet
Memories came flooding back, joyful and bittersweet
Ran into your best friend downtown, he said you were doin’ fine
Held back the burning question of do I ever cross his mind
CHORUS
OLD FLAME, TRY TO REMEMBER THE GOOD TIMES AND FORGET THE PAIN
ALWAYS THOUGHT WE’D SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN
Had a dream of you last night
Put your arms around me and held me tight
I woke up to find that you weren’t there
but your ghost I could feel everywhere
CHORUS
CHORUS (repeated)
