Flame Trees

Album: The Secret Daughter - The Secret Edition (The Songs You Loved from the Original 7 Series) Durasi: 3:44
[00:08.88]Kids out driving Saturday afternoon pass me by
[00:16.62]I'm just savouring familiar sights
[00:24.55]We share some history, this town and I
[00:32.56]And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of him
[00:40.51]Time to book a room to stay tonight, mhm
[00:48.55]Number one is to find some friends to say, you're doing well
[00:56.45]After all this time, you boys look just the same, hmm
[01:04.54]Number two is the happy hour at one of two hotels
[01:12.48]Settle in to play "Do you remember so and so?", oh
[01:20.55]Number three is never say his name
[01:26.79]And, oh, the flame trees will blind the weary driver
[01:34.92]And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
[01:42.94]There's no change, there's no pace
[01:46.88]Everything within its place
[01:50.75]Just makes it harder to believe that he won't be around
[02:00.33]Oh, who needs that sentimental bullshit, anyway
[02:08.43]You know it takes more than just a memory to make me cry
[02:16.08]And I'm happy just to sit here, round a table with old friends
[02:23.75]See which one of us can tell the biggest lies, ohh
[02:31.55]And there's a girl, she's falling in love near where the pianola stands
[02:40.37]With a young local factory out-of-worker, just holding hands
[02:46.92]And I'm wondering if he'll go or if he'll stay
[02:54.11]Do you remember, nothing stopped us on the field
[03:01.11]In our day
[03:05.04]Oh, the flame trees will blind the weary driver, mhm
[03:12.96]And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
[03:20.92]There's no change, there's no pace
[03:24.92]Everything within its place
[03:28.63]Just makes it harder to believe that he won't be around
