RED HILL MINING TOWN

From Father to Son The blood runs thin Our faces frozen (still) against the wind The seam is split The coal face cracked The lines are long And there's no going back Through hands of steel And a heart of stone Our labour day has come and gone And you leave me holding on In Red Hill Town As lights go down I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm holding on You're all that's left to hold on to The glass is cut The bottle run dry Our love runs cold In the caverns of the night We're wounded by fear Injured in doubt I can lose myself You I can't live without Because you keep me holding on In Red Hill Town as the lights go down I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm holding on You're all that's left to hold on to And we scorch the earth Set fire to the sky Stoop so low to reach so high A link is lost The chain undone Now we wait all day For the night to come And it comes Like a hunter (child) I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to We see love slowly stripped away Our love, has seen a better day I'm hanging on See the lights go down on Red Hill Town See the lights go down on Red Hill Town See lights go down on Red Hill Town See lights go down on Red Hill Town
