Our Old Flame - Cold Chisel

It’s the eyes that give the game away

As I come through the door

Of a steakhouse off the highway

And I remember years before

Those same eyes, only younger

More innocent somehow

And I wonder about your situation now

Are you married, are there children

Did you ever settle down

With that psychopathic boy

You failed to mention last time round

Or is there just a lonely room

Full of poetry

And lots of mutilated dolls that look like me

Our old flame

Our old flame

When you look at me, will you see

The man that I became

Or will you see the boy I was

See me by the light of our old flame

Our old flame

Pretty soon you’ll cross the room

To take my order down

And recognize the man with whom

You briefly hung around

Am I gonna catch a sign

Of panic in your heart

Like the panic that I’m feeling now in mine

Our old flame

Our old flame

When you look at me, will you see

The man that I became

Or will you see the boy I was

See me by the light of our old flame

Our old flame
