Still Carry a Torch

out walking the streets

met my old time used to be

walking with another man

holding hands real happily

she said ”hello Mike, how are you doing,

that’s my new man, you see”

I shook his hand, saw the matching rings

it was killing me

but don’t count me out just yet

I thought he would be worried

about how, who, when and where

but he just showed off that ring as a proof

he didn’t have to care

in the glimpse of a second, her eyes met mine

and sparks flew everywhere

he was so damn sure of himself, but man

you better beware

don’t count me out just yet

you better beware

don’t count me out just yet

he better beware

I still carry a torch

still carry, carry a torch

still carry, carry a torch

...

I could tell by her smile

she remembered just like me

we were so much in love back then

going at it constantly

here we are five years later

and two plus one is three

guess one of us got to go

tell me who’s it gonna be

don’t count me out just yet

who’s it gonna be

don’t count me out just yet

ohh

’cause I still carry a torch

still carry, carry a torch

still carry, carry a torch

...

I’ll get my hands on you

if it’s the last thing I do

my body’s trembling, baby

and I know

I know you feel it too

still carry, carry a torch

still carry, carry a torch

...
