I guess I should accept the call
But I really don't know what to say
Cause the operator won't let you talk at all
And she says you want me to pay
Oh well it ain't nothing new
It fits right with my picture of you
But tonight you're gonna find out
What these tears are all about
This old flame went out
You never thought you'd be the one
In the darkness now
I think you know what I'm talking about
This old flame went out
You went to get cigarettes
I was last july you didn't get home yet
And now you expect me to bear you out
You call me collect there ain't no doubt
This old flame went out
You never thought you'd be the one
In the darkness now
I think you know what I'm talking about
This old flame went out
What do you mean how could I do this to you“
Let's not forget who walked out on who
This old flame went out
You never thought you'd be the one
In the darkness now
I think you know what I'm talking about
This old flame went out
I think you know what I'm talking about
This old flame went out
