Elvis Costello & the Attractions Follow

I never heard her say, ‽Goodnight and God bless”
She's not the only flame in town
She's not the only flame
(She's not the only flame)
(She's not the only flame)

And when we're alone
We never quarrel
I'm miles away now here's the moral
She's not the only flame in town

She's not the only flame in town
She's got to stop thinkin' that I'm
Carryin' 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 town
(She's not the only flame)
(She's not the only flame)

But 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 town

She's not the only flame in town
She's got to stop thinkin' that I'm
Carryin' this torch around

You're not the only flame
You're not the only flame

Thought I saw your face in the fire
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
You're not the only flame
You're not the only flame
You're not the only flame

You're not the only flame
You're not the only flame
You're not the only flame
You're not the only flame

I never heard her say, ‽Goodnight and God bless”
She's not the only flame in town
