"That Old Flame" plays

Got a message in my mailbox From an old friend I hardly see All it said was you were tryin' To get in touch with me And I stared down at your number And I felt passion, and I felt fear And I wondered what the hell you wanted After all these years There is danger in the embers You have only yourself to blame If you get burned When you try to rekindle that old flame - Well, I know we ended badly And I was angry for a long, long time But I've grown some And I wanted you to know that I'm doing just fine And I'm not asking for a replay I got no delusions, I got no desire But can I borrow just a little cup of kindness For auld lang syne - There is danger in the embers You have only yourself to blame If you get burned When you try to rekindle that old flame Speak to me plain Tell me the truth Is it really me you miss or just your long-lost youth?

Instrumental music plays

Guitar solo

Yeah, there is danger in the embers And you know nothing, nothing stays the same Yeah, you can get burned When you try to rekindle that old flame Yeah, you can get burned When you try to rekindle that old flame
