The Only Flame in Town Lyrics


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 townAnd when we're alone we never quarrel
I'm miles away now here's the moral
She's not the only flame in townShe'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 townBut 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 townShe'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

Elvis Costello & The Attractions was the band formed by Elvis Costello in 1977. It comprised Steve Nieve (ne Nason) on keyboards, Pete Thomas on drums and Bruce Thomas (no relation) on bass. He recorded and toured solidly with them until 1984, when he disbanded them to pursue solo projects. He reconvened the band for one-off albums and tours over the following decade; in particular from 1994 through 1996.
