Flame Trees Lyrics - Jessica Mauboy

Kids out driving Saturday afternoon pass me by 

I'm just savouring familiar sights 

We share some history, this town and I 

And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of her 

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 that she won't be around

Can You Guess The Song By The Emojis? 

Prime Day concert by Amazon Music will be headlined by Taylor Swift 

Watch Taylor Swift Party With Katy Perry and RuPaul in New Video for “You Need to Calm Down” 

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 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, 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 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 around
