I look up as you walk in
That old feelin' comes right back again
You still look as good as ever standing there
You smile at me like I hoped you would
Then we dance and oh it feels so good
And what we feel was supposed to have been gone for all these years
But sometimes you stir the ashes
And you find one glowing ember
There's a sparkle among the cinders after all this time
And that dream we both been dreaming
Just came true for you and I
'Cause tonight I know we both saw a fire in an old flame's eyes
I look at you, you look at me
And it's almost like it used to be
And I wonder why I ever let you go
'Cause if we'd let this chance slip by
Oh we could, it wasted both our lives
'Cause the love we had was supposed to have gone cold so long ago
But sometimes you stir the ashes
And you find one glowing ember
There's a sparkle among the cinders after all this time
And that dream we both been dreaming
Just came true for you and I
'Cause tonight I know we both saw a fire in an old flame's eyes
'Cause tonight I know we both saw a fire in an old flame's eyes
