Текст песни Flame Trees (Live 2003) - 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
And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of her
It's time to book a room and stay tonight

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

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

And 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
And see which one of us could 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, just holding hands now

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

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

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