Intro

 The kids are driving and Saturday afternoon just passed me by

 I'm just savouring familiar sights

 We shared some history, this town and I

  Av

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

 In time to book a room and stay tonight

Number 1 is to find some friends and say "you're doing well --

After all this time you boys look just the same"

Number 2 is the Happy Hour at one of two hotels

And settle in to play "Do you remember so-and-so"

Number 3 is never say her name

Chorus

 And oh the flame trees'll blind a weary driver

Av

 And there's nothing that can 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, who needs that sentimental bullshit anyway

 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

 And there's a girl, she's fallin' in love near where the pianola stands

 With a young local factory auto worker -- just holdin' 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
