Old Flames (Can't Hold A Candle To You) (feat. Dolly Parton)

[Verse 1: Kesha; Both]
 ♪
 Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who
 I used to take comfort from long before I met you
 
 I caught a spark in his eyes of forgotten desire
 
 With a word, or a touch, I could've rekindled that fire
 ♪
 But old flames can't hold a candle to you
 No one can light up the night like you do
 
 Flickering embers of love
 I've known one or two
 But old flames can't hold a candle to you
 Oh, yeah, ooh
 ♪
 But sometimes at night, I think of old lovers I've known
 And I remember how holding them helped me not feel so alone
 (Feel so alone)
 Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone
 Like stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn
 ♪
 Oh, but old flames can't hold a candle to you
 No one can light up the night like you do
 
 Flickerin' embers of love
 I've known one or two
 But old flames can't hold a candle to you
 
 But old flames can't hold a candle to you
 Oh, yeah
