You have one new voice message.

Received yesterday at 3: 39 P. M.

Hi. This is Lionel here.

Tracy, I'm sorry about this week

about asking you that

and f*** up this for sure.

The last thing I ever wanna

do is put you in any danger

of sliding back, you know.

I understand you can't see

me for a while, but smile.

Just wanted to say

thank you for everything

you've done, you know.

Let you know that I'm really good.

Gonna really sort out this time

and next time I see you,

it'll be really good, ey?

So, my shiny, shiny girl,

take good care of yourself

and, yeah...

Alright, love. Bye, love.

Kids out driving Saturday afternoon

just 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

Try to book a room to stay tonight

N umber one is to find some friends

to say, "You're doing well

After all this time you

boys look just the same"

N umber two is the happy hour

at one of two hotels

Settle into play "Do

you remember so and so"

N umber 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

And I'm wondering if he'll go

or if he'll stay

Do you remember

nothing stopped us on the field

in our days

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

There's no change, there's no pace

Everything within its place

Just makes it harder to believe

she won't be around
