Cold Chisel

Cold Chisel - Flame Trees lyrics

rate me

Kids out driving Saturday afternoon just pass me by

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 to stay tonight

Number one is to find some friends to say "You're doing well

After all this time you boys look just the same"

Number two is the happy hour at one of two hotels

Settle in to play "Do you remember so and so?"

Number three is never say her name

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

Oh! Who needs that sentimental bullshit, anyway

Takes more than just a memory to make me cry

And I'm happy just to sit here round a table with old friends

And 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, Ah! their just holding hands

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

Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver

And there's nothing else could set fire to the town

There's no change, there's no pace

Everything within its place

Just makes it harder to believe she won't be around
