U2 - Red Hill Mining Town lyrics
[U2 - Red Hill Mining Town lyrics]
Ooh, 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
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 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 it's better day hangin' on
Lights go out on Red Hill
The lights go down on Red Hill
The lights go down on Red Hill Town
Lights go out on Red Hill
