Red Hill Mining Town Lyrics

- ("Uncovered" show at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, London - 1/31/95)

 - Bono (U2 - from the album "The Joshua Tree")

 From Father to Son

 The blood runs thin

 I see 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 labor day has come and gone

 Yeah, you leave me holding on

 In Red Hill Town

 See lights go down

 Hanging on

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

 I'm still waiting

 I'm hanging on

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

 Glass is cut

 Bottle runs dry

 Our love runs cold

 In the caverns of the night

 We're wounded by fear

 Injured in doubt

 I can lose myself

 But I can't live without

 Yeah, you keep me holding on

 In Red Hill Town

 See the lights go down

 I'm hanging on

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

 I'm still waiting

 Hanging on

 All that's left to hold on to

 We scorch the earth

 Set fire to the sky

 We stoop 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 hunted child

 I'm hanging on

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

 I'm still waiting

 I'm hanging on

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

 Love slowly stripped away

 Love has seen a better day

 Hanging on

 Lights go out on Red Hill

 Lights go down on Red Hill

 Lights go down on Red Hill Town

 Lights go down on Red Hill

 Lights go down on Red Hill Town

 Lights go down on Red Hill
