Текст песни Old Flame - Betty Buckley
I
am
waiting
for
a
man,
I
am
sitting
in
his
place
It's
been
40,
50
years
since
I
last
saw
his
face
I
used
to
pray
that
he'd
come
back
I'd
hold
a
photo
to
my
chest
I
would
whisper
filthy
poems
The
doctor
said
I
was
obsessed
I
moved
on
and
I
grew
up
I
had
a
husband,
a
career
But
lately,
I
been
feeling
prickly
Guess
that's
what
brought
me
here
In
some
minutes,
maybe
more
He's
gonna
open
up
that
door
Old
flame,
old
flame
Will
you
freeze
or
will
you
run
When
you
see
I've
got
a
gun?
When
you
see
I've
got
a
gun?
Old
flame,
old
flame
Will
I
feel
a
little
doubt
When
it's
time
to
snuff
you
out?
Oh,
I
try
to
think
of
good
things
And
the
positives
I've
got
Then
I
think
of
him
a
little
Then
I
think
of
him
a
lot
And
it's
not
him
just
by
himself
I
think
of
what
he
put
me
through
And
how
I
had
to
overcome
That
which
he
never
had
to
do
I
been
sittin'
here
forever
It's
so
like
him
that
he's
late
And
now
he's
made
me
think
about
him
That's
the
part
of
him
I
hate
Well,
hate
is
much
too
strong
a
word
I
guess
that
I'm
not
bein'
fair
As
I
clutch
the
pistol
tighter
in
the
dark
and
in
his
chair
Old
flame,
old
flame
Why
does
your
memory
persist?
I
think
I
hate
that
you
exist
I
think
I
hate
that
you
exist
Old
flame,
old
flame
Why
should
I
have
any
doubt
That
I
need
to
snuff
you
out?
'Cause
Oprah
Winfrey
told
me
on
TV
the
other
day
That
dealing
with
the
past
is
really
so
the
only
way
To
move
on
and
change
and
be
the
woman
that
I
deserve
to
be
See
Oprah
told
me
Yeah,
Oprah
told
me!
And
I
realize
the
reason
I
was
feeling
awfully
low
I
had
not
really
confronted
what
had
happened
long
ago
I
was
angry
at
the
past
and
at
this
man
and
Oprah
said
That
the
best
way
to
get
past
the
past
was
shoot
him
in
the
head!
...
Or
somethin'
like
that...
...Sometimes
I
paraphrase...
Well,
anyways...
I
am
Waiting
for
a
man
I
hear
his
car,
I
start
to
churn
Steps
on
gravel
coming
close
I
see
the
doorknob
start
to
turn
I
aim
my
gun,
he
steps
inside
He
looks
at
me
and
I
at
him
He's
confused
and
I
am
too
I
say
out
loud,
"You're
not
Jim"
He
says,
"Who's
Jim?"
I
try
to
leave
He
grabs
me
roughly
by
the
arm
I
shoot
him
in
the
shoulder
(Sound
of
a
gunshot.)
It's
self-defense,
I
mean
no
harm
My
ears
are
ringing
loud
as
I
walk
swiftly
from
the
house
You
can't
trust
Google
for
addresses
And
look,
a
blood
stain
on
my
blouse
I
hear
Oprah
in
my
head
as
I
look
down
at
my
shirt
"When
you
can't
let
go
of
the
past
That's
when
the
innocent
get
hurt"
There's
a
lesson
to
be
learned
here
What
it
is
I
just
can't
see
I'm
not
living
in
the
past
It's
the
past
that
lives
in
me
Old
flame,
old
flame
Look
at
what
you
made
me
do
I
guess
I
always
knew
I
guess
I
always
knew
Old
flame,
old
flame
You
never
let
me
mend
You'd
burn
me
in
the
end
Old
flame,
old
flame
How
I
struggle
how
I
fight
But
I
can't
ignore
your
light
I
cannot
ignore
your
light
Old
flame,
old
flame
You're
out
there
burning
bright
But
I
can't
ignore
your
light
I
cannot
ignore
your
light
Light
Now
I
haven't
any
doubt
Hard
as
I
try
I
will
never
blow
you
out
I
will
always
be
the
same
Old...
