Two lights seen over Gold Coast Australia

Driving home from dropping somebody home on 5th January 2014, I saw two dull orange-ish lights above the Gold Coast. The higher one had a more reddish tinge to the other light. Although they were close to Coolangatta Airport I believe they were not planes, because they were much too close together at a low altitude to be planes coming in to land simultaneously, and have had no reports of a plane crash. Also they couldn't have been stars as they were too obviously strange and discoloured to be stars. Next to the road was a long shrubbery with trees and as I drove passed one tree the lower light simply vanished without a flash or a line to see where, and as I drove passed another tree the remaining light did the same. Havn't seen any traces of them since.
