[Kesha] Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who I used to take comfort from long before I met you I caught a spark from 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
[Kesha & Dolly Parton] 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
[Kesha & Dolly Parton] 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
[Kesha & Dolly Parton] 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
