My Old Flame - Ella Fitzgerald
My old flame, I can't even think of his name
but it's funny now and then
How my thoughts go flashing back again
to my old flame
My old flame, my new lovers all seem so tame
For I haven't met a gent so magnificent
or elegant as my old flame
I've met so many who had fascinating ways
A fascinating gaze in their eyes,
some who took me up to the skies
But their attempts at love were only
imitations of my old flame
I can't even think of his name
but I'll never be the same
Until I discover what became of my old flame
I've met so many who had fascinating ways
A fascinating gaze in their eyes,
some who took me up to the skies
But their attempts at love were
only imitations of my old flame
I can't even think of his name
but I'll never be the same
Until I discover what became of my old flame
