C     G         Am          F
I'm carryin' a torch for you
 C   G          F
I'm carryin' a torch
C          G                Am            F
You don't know, you don't know what it's worth
    C    G          C
To keep carryin' a torch

Flame of love it burns so bright
That is my desire
Keep on liftin' me, liftin' me up
Higher and higher

Chorus:
G7
You're the keeper of the flame
F                 C
And you burn so bright
G7
why don't we, why don't we re-connect
F                         G7
And move up into the light

I've been goin' to and fro on this
And I'm still carryin' a torch
You must know how much it's worth
When I'm carryin' a torch (Alright)

Chorus:
Baby, you're the keeper of the flame
And you burn so bright
Why, why, why, why, why, why don't we reconnect
And move on further into the light?

I've been calling you on the phone
'Cause I'm carryin' a torch (Yeah)
I can do it all on my own
'Cause I'm carryin' a torch

I'm carryin' a torch for you, baby
I'm carryin' a torch
You know how much it's worth
Because I'm carryin' a torch (One more)

I'm carryin' a torch for you, baby
I'm carryin' a torch (Ow)
You know how much it's worth, baby
'Cause I'm carryin' a torch
