Red Hill Mining Town (Steve Lillywhite 2017 Mix)

From father to son

The blood runs thin

Mmh, see the faces frozen still

Against the wind

The seam is split

The coal-face cracked

The lines are long

There's no going back

Through hands of steel

And heart of stone

Our labour day

Has come and gone

They leave me holdin' on

In Red Hill Town

See the lights go down on

Hangin' on

You're all that's left to hold on to

I'm still waiting

I'm hangin' 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

Yeah, you keep me holdin' on

In Red Hill Town

See the lights go down on

I'm hangin' on

You're all that's left to hold on to

I'm still waiting

Hangin' on

All that's left to hold on to

We scorch the earth

Set fire to the sky

And we stooped so low

To reach so high

A link is lost

The chain undone

We wait all day

For night to come

And it comes

Like a hunter child

I'm hangin' on

You're all that's left to hold on to

I'm still waiting

I'm hangin' on

You're all that's left to hold on to

Love, slowly stripped away

Love has seen its better day

I'm hangin' on

You're all that's left to hold on to (All that's left to hold on to)

All that's left to hold on to (You're all that's left to hold on to)

You're all that's left to hold on to (All that's left to hold on, hold on)

Lights go out on Red Hill
