[Verse 1] 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 Time to book a room and stay tonight
[Verse 2] 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 the one of two hotels And settle in to play, "Do you remember so and so?" And number three is, never say her name
[Chorus] 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 that she won't be around
[Verse 3] Oh, who needs that sentimental bullshit, anyway? You know it takes more than just a memory to make me cry And I'm happy just to sit here At a table with old friends And see which one of us can tell the biggest lies
[Verse 4] 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 And I'm wondering if he'll go or if he'll stay
[Bridge] Do you remember? Nothing stopped us on the field in our day
[Chorus] 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 that she won't be around 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 that she won't be arounTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
