My Old Flame
Eternal Yearning: Rediscovering My Old Flame's Enchanting Memory
Lyrics
My old flame,
Reflecting on a past romantic partner
I can't even think of his name.
Unable to recall the name of the ex-partner
But, it's funny now and then
Occasionally reminisces despite forgetting
How my thoughts go flashing back again,
Memories involuntarily resurface
To my old flame.
Recollection of the past relationship
My old flame.
Reiteration of thoughts about the ex-partner
My new lovers all seem so tame
Comparison of current lovers to the past partner
For I haven't met a gent
Not finding someone as exceptional
So magnificent or elegant
Describing the ex-partner's exceptional qualities
As my old flame.
Emphasizing the uniqueness of the old flame
I've met so many men
Encountering numerous men
With fascinating ways,
Men with intriguing characteristics
A fascinating gaze in their eyes.
Noting captivating expressions in their eyes
Some have sent me up to the skies
Feeling elated by some men's actions
But, their attempts at love
Realizing their love doesn't match past love
Are only imitations of my old flame.
Others are mere imitations of the old flame
I can't even think of his name
Recollection of forgetting the ex-partner's name
But, I'll never be the same
Permanent impact of the past relationship
Until I discover what became of
Desire to know the ex-partner's current situation
My old flame.
Curiosity about what happened to the old flame
