My oldest flame Never too soon To see you again Let's not pretend A kiss on the lips That's all I ask You and I both know This just won't last Was I born with a curse Or never born at all As the living get livid From Time to time I don't know of anger Can't say I'm happy And I won't say I'm sad All that I know is My oldest flame And she don't go to bed She just sits by my side 'Til the morning Comes pouring through the curtains crack Good morning my flame Good night to all Let me hide in the shadows until the curse has been lifted Crooked ol' smile To the side on my face Eyes, half the size Of a younger man And closer together The years took their toll But she took much more As the curse starts to rise I realise how sad I've been All my life long Cut short by the curse That's goes by the name.. My Oldest Flame
