[Intro]
From father to
son
The blood runs
thin
Ooh, see the f
aces frozen st
ill
Against the wi
nd.
[Verse]
The seam is split
The coal-face
cracked
The lines are
long
There's no goi
ng back.
Through hands
of steel
And heart of s
tone
Our labour day
Has come and g
one.
[Bridge]
They leave me holdin' on
In Red Hill To
wn.
See the lights
go down on ..
.
[Chorus]
Hangin' on
You're all tha
t's left to ho
ld on to.
I'm still wait
ing
I'm hangin' on
You're all tha
t's left to ho
ld on to.
[Verse]
The glass is c
ut
The bottle run
dry.
Our love runs
cold
In the caverns
of the night.
We're wounded
by fear
Injured in dou
bt.
I can lose mys
elf
You I can't li
ve without.
[Bridge]
Yeah, you keep me holdin' on
In Red Hill To
wn.
See the lights
go down on
[Chorus]
Hangin' on
You're all tha
t's left to ho
ld on to.
I'm still wait
ing
I'm hangin' on
You're all tha
t's left to ho
ld on to
On to.
[Verse]
We scorch the
earth
Set fire to th
e sky
And we stooped
so low
To reach so hi
gh.
[Verse]
A link is lost
The chain undo
ne.
We wait all da
y
For night to c
ome
And it comes l
ike a hunter c
hild.
[Chorus]
I'm hangin' on
You're all tha
t's left to ho
ld on to.
I'm still wait
ing
I'm hangin' on
You're all tha
t's left to ho
ld on to.
We see love, slowly stripped away
Our love has s
een its better
day.
Hangin' on
Lights go down
on Red Hill
The lights go
down on Red Hi
ll.
The lights go
down on Red Hi
ll.
The lights go
down on Red Hi
ll Town..
