I know a girl got my mind in a mess    I never heard her say goodnight and God bless    She's not the only flame in town    And when we're alone we never quarrel    I'm miles away now here's the moral    She's not the only flame in town       She's not the only flame in town    She's got to stop thinking that I'm    carrying this torch around       He struck a match and it lit up her face    We should have struck a match girl    To burn down the whole place    Now you're not the only flame in town       But you blew hot and cold    Turned my heart to a cinder    And with each passing day    You'd be less tender and more tinder    Now you're not the only flame in town       She's not the only flame in town    She's got to stop thinking that I'm    carrying this torch around       Thought I saw your face in the fire    But it's so hard to remember    Even an inferno can cool down to an ember    Now you're not the only flame    You're not the only flame    You're not the only flame in town
