Remember when you told me you were over him?   Well, girl, I know you never mean to lie   But every time that we go out and he walks in   You say hello like you never said goodbye      And that old spark gets in your eye      Guess I'm no match for that old flame   Lord, he left a memory that I can't love away   All fires don't burn the same   And I'm no match for that old flame      I know you say this is all just in my head   Girl, you know I want that to be true   And though you say your love for him is long since dead   You come alive every time he looks at you      And I have to face the cold hard truth      Guess I'm no match for that old flame   Lord, he left a memory that I can't love away   All fires don't burn the same   And I'm no match for that old flame, oh, Lord      I'm no match for that old flame   Lord, he left a memory that I can't love away   All fires, they don't burn the same   And I'm no match, I'm no match for that old flame      I'm no match   I'm no match for that old flame
