Lyrics Flame Trees - Live - Cold Chisel

Kids out driving Saturday afternoon just pass me by
And I'm just savouring familiar sights
We shared some history, this town and I (you know we did)
And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of her
And time to book a room and stay tonight (don't say I could stay at this places)

And number one is to find some friends to say "You're doing well
After all this time you boys look just the same"
And number two is the happy hour at one of two hotels
Settle in to play "Do you remember so and so?"
And number three is never say her name

And oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
And there's no change, there's no pace
Everything within it's place
Makes it harder to believe that she won't be around

Oh! Who needs that sentimental bullshit anyway?
It takes more than just a memory, to make me cry
I'm happy just to sit here, round this table with old friends
See which one of us can tell the biggest lies
And there's a girl, she's falling in love, near where the pianola stands
With a young local factory out-of-worker, and you know they're just holding hands (like you do)

And I'm wondering if he'll go or if he'll stay
Do you remember, nothing stopped us on the field in our day

And oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver (oh oh oh)
There's nothing else could set fire to this town
And there's no change, there's no pace
Everything within it's place (oo la la)
Makes it harder to believe that she won't be around

And oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver (oh oh oh)
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within it's place
Makes it harder to believe, she won't be around
