We Can Never Light That Old Flame Again

Never light that old flame again
No, not ever, no never
We just can't fight it
We just can't light it

When our friendship turned to love
That's when the world turned on
But when our love turned to friendship
I knew the feeling was gone
Why keep clinging to bits and pieces
When all the time loneliness increases
We both have to know when to let go

But we talk and talk and lay awake
The more we talk, the less we say
There's no way, just ain't no way

We can ever light that old flame again
Never feel the same again
With warmed over love and leftover dreams

When our love was a raging fire
We'd make love all night
But now when we're making love
We make love just to be polite
We can't go back to where we've been
Can never cross that bridge again
But let's be glad for what we had

'Cause we took and took until it's all used up
We can't drink from an empty cup
It's all used up, it's all used up

We can ever light that old flame again
Never feel the same again
With warmed over love and leftover dreams

'Cause we took and took until it's all used up
We can't drink from an empty cup
It's all used up, it's all used up

We can ever light that old flame again
Never feel the same again
With warmed over love and leftover dreams

Life's too short to keep holding on
We both know that the feeling's gone
We keep clinging to bits and pieces
When all the time loneliness increases

Ain't no way
Ain't no way, baby
Oh, there just ain't no way
No, there just ain't no way
That we could ever light that old flame again
Never feel ever the same again
With warmed over love and leftover dreams
