There's a fire beneath my skin
There's a fever that makes me ill
Got a love, a love that kills
I've got twenty four hours to live
Comeback, I'm begging you please
Comeback, I'm down on my knees
Comeback, I'm begging you please
I don't know why and I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
There's a rose across my chest
Got your name written on it
Love's the drug that I live by
Give me a shot before I die
Comeback, I'm begging you please
Comeback, I'm down on my knees
Comeback, I'm begging you please
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
Sold me down the river tonight
Whoo whoo
I've got twenty four hours
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
All right
Sold me
Sold me
Sold me down the river
Sold me
Sold me
Sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
I'm a man who bites hard on the bullet of silence
If only you could feel the pain I hide
Know me, like I know you
Still water running deep in the cavern of my soul
So many roads lead nowhere
Know me, like I know you
Like a rock, waves clash over me
Standing silent, waiting to be set free
The rock, the rock, the rock
Will never let you down
The rock will never fall
Or tumble to the ground
The rock, the rock, the rock
Will never let you down
The rock will never fall
Or tumble to the ground
Like a rock
I've been accused of being many things
None of them ever hit the mark
Know me, like I know you
Like a rock, waves clash over me
Standing silent, waiting to be set free
The rock, the rock, the rock
Will never let you down
The rock will never fall
Or tumble to the ground
The rock, the rock, the rock
Will never let you down
The rock will never fall
Or tumble to the ground
Like a rock
The rock, the rock, the rock
Will never let you down
The rock will never fall
Or tumble to the ground
The rock, the rock, the rock
Will never let you down
The rock will never fall
Or tumble to the ground
Like a rock
Hiraeth, hiraeth, hiraeth, hiraeth
I'm a man
Torn in two
State and nation
I've got to choose
For on these streets
That I spit upon
There's no money in my pocket
No soles on my shoes
Ain't got no religion
But the workingman blues
Oh I, I've got the workin' man blues
Oh I'm kicking the dirt off my shoes
Devolution workingman blues
I don't dance
No rich mans tune
I won't play
The poor mans fool
Within these eyes
That you look upon
There is fear mixed with pride
A dangerous device
For talkin' devolution
Talkin' workin'man blues
Oh I, I've got the workingman blues
Oh I'm kickin' the dirt off my shoes
Devolution workingman blues
Devolution workingman blues
Oh I, I've got the workingman blues
Oh I'm kickin' the dirt off my shoes
Oh I, I've got the workingman blues
Oh I'm kickin' the dirt off my shoes
Oh I, I've got the workingman blues
Oh I, I've got the workingman workingman blues
Devolution workingman blues
Love can give you everything
Then take it all away
She can take you to the water
She can make you thirst for days
Tell you what you want to hear
In the same breath she can steal
And that's why love don't come easy
Love can take you to the mountain
Love can make it move
Love can shine her burning torchlight
In the bed of fools
Love can be your witness
She is judge as she condemns
And that's why love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
Love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
It ain't over 'til it's over
Love can make your poverty
Seem rich although your poor
Love can be your honesty
When your conscience comes to call
Love can count you out in ten
When she's got you down on the floor
And that's why love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
Love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
It ain't over 'til it's over
Love can make the time move quick
Or torture time so slow
Love can heal a gaping wound
Or make the pain explode
Love can be the difference
Between life and the hangmans rope
And that's why love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
Love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
And that's why love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
Love don't come easy
Sometimes love don't come at all
It ain't over 'til it's over
It ain't over 'til it's over
It ain't over 'til it's over
It ain't over 'til it's over
Everybody (love)
Everybody (love)
Everybody have a good time (love)
Hardland ripped & torn apart
Hard dreams leave scarred
In the lines of my face
The story of faith
Hardland
I came back
Home to a hardland
Where a man is judged
By the scars on his face
Where that sliding scale still operates
To come home, I had to go away from here
HARDLAND
I saw a land
Standing at the crossroads
I saw her wrath
Burning in a burned out home
Saw her tears
In rivers running cold
Her tragedy, waiting to explode
In the HARDLAND
Ripped and torn apart
Hard dreams
Leave me scarred
In the lines of my face
A story of faith
HARDLAND
I feel afraid
When I think about my children
I feel scared
When I walk down a street at night
Feel sad
When I look on the flag
I feel the anger
Rising in the heart of the
HARDLAND
Ripped and torn apart
Hard dreams
Leave me scarred
In the lines of my face
A story of faith
HARDLAND
Wherever I wander across this land
Of my fathers
The valley is ripped and the mountain scarred
Tom apart
A house is ablaze on the hillside
A sign says "This land is not for sale"
HARDLAND
Ripped and tom apart
Hard dreams
Leave me scarred
In the lines of my face
A story of faith
HARDLAND

The Lines On My Face

Ripped and tom apart

In the lines of my face

It's been a long time comin'
And it's good to be back
Been in a head on collision
With a medicine man
I've been down in the alley
Where the odds are stacked
Down on my knees
Had to turn back
CHANGE
CHANGE
I need a change
OH LORD
CHANGE
CHANGE
I need a change
OH LORD OH LORD
Down in a no mans land
Between sorrow and sweet
Where the devil himself
Sits on the judgement seat
Where you drown in your rain
Your wind and your sleet
When you're six feet under
Dead on you feet
CHANGE
CHANGE
I need a change
OH LORD
CHANGE
CHANGE
I need a change
OH LORD
It's got to be tough
To be so true
It's got to be even tougher
To be you
You hammer at the door
Singing "God save the Queen"
I want to leave this place
CHANGE
CHANGE
I need a change
OH LORD
CHANGE
CHANGE
I need a change
OH LORD

I need a change

It's been a long time coming and it's good to be back
A thousand miles before us
Long is the road
The mountain high
And the valley low
Our love is stronger than we know
In the tears of a river
I see the wrong
Hear the mountain cry
Cry anger
Feel the pain in the valley below
I want to run
Where the sunlight beats on my face
I want to feel
The wind in my hair
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
That we can't cross tonight
There are no borderlines
To keep us apart
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
I am devoted to you
Like the sea to the shore
Like the tree to the forest
I can't live without you
A river can't live without water
I want to run
Where the sunlight beats on my face
I want to feel
The wind in my hair
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
That we can't cross tonight
There are no borderlines
To keep us apart
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
That we can't cross oh oh oh
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
That we can't cross tonight
There are no borderlines
To keep us apart
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
That we can't cross tonight
There are no borderlines
To keep us apart
No, no, no
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
THERE ARE NO FRONTIERS
To keep us apart
THERE ARE NO…..
I
Dream in red
Of the things
That this world could be
And is not
I
Walk in the glow
Of a thousand candles
Burning, burning slow

Begging
Pleading

Of a thousand words

Walk in the light
Of a world I wish
I wish to set on fire

Home where my heart beats
Where my love waits for me
Where the winds of change
Howl into my face
There's rain off the headlands
Closes in by day
Don't cry, don't cry
Wipe you tears away
The rivers are rising
There is a flood in me
I can feel the heat
In the air that I breathe
Home
WHERE A TOWN ONCE STOOD
Home
Before a storm
Home
WHERE A TOWN ONCE STOOD
Home
Before a storm
Distant horizons
Drowning in the fire
Slowly, slowly
A life flashing by
The rivers are rising
There is a flood in me
I can feel the heat
In the air that I breathe
Home
WHERE A TOWN ONCE STOOD
Home
Before a storm
Home
WHERE A TOWN ONCE STOOD

Whoa, whoa
I run for my life
Under the black sunlight
On deserted streets
Uneasy dreams I sleep
In this forgitten place
I'm a forgotten face
Sometimes I don't exist
Like the dust swept aside
Fade away on the wind fadeaway
To walk away into the tide walkaway
That's the end
That's the end
The end of the great black gold
That's the dream
That's the dream
The dream that I wake up to
The dawn of the great black sun
It shines on me
Scream for help
From this silent soul
This man feels no pain
This pride will not break
I want to breathe the night
I want to feel the air
I want to take it in deep
I want to set myself free
Fade away on the wind fadeaway
Walk away into the tide walkaway
Walkaway
That's the end
That's the end
The end of the great black gold
That's the dream
That's the dream
The dream that I wake up to
The dawn of the great black sun
That shines on me
Shines on me
Oh yeah
Shines on me
Oh shines on me
The great black sun
That shines on me
Shines on me
The great black sun
Shines on me
Outside in ruthless city canyons
Rivers of people oveflow
Gunshots in the skyway valley madness
Ricochet as my mind starts to implode
Oh no, no
Help me
Help me
I'm trapped in a Prison without prison bars
Help me
Help me
I'm trapped in a Prison without Prison bars
Everyday someone's trying to sell me something
Through coloured images flashing on my t.v. screen
But my mind is stripped there's no reaction
I don't get what they're saying to me no more
No more
Help me
Help me
I'm trapped in a prison without Prison bars
Help me
Help me
I'm trapped in a prison without prison bars
(Help me, help me)
Searchlights overhead staring down on me
I've got a mountain of trouble to release
One day the hunter will be the hunted
Got my back up against the wall
Trapped in a prison without bars
Trapped in a prison without
prison bars
Trapped in a prison without
prison bars
Help me
Help me
I'm trapped in a prison without prison bars
Help me
Help me
I'm trapped in a prison without prison bars
(Help me)
Once you held your finger on the trigger
Now the gun is pointing at your head
Once you reigned supreme
Over all that you could see
Now you walk on the other side of the street
How the mighty fall
I've seen it all before
From the highest heights
To the lowest of lows
How the mighty fall
Once your words were the first and last on the subject
Now they hang like a noose around your neck
Once you held the light
That could be seen from near and far
Now you fall and stumble in the dark
How the mighty fall
I've seen it all before
From the highest heights
To the lowest of lows
How the mighty fall
Once you held the secrets of the world within your hands
Now you're just another grain of sand
Once you were the first
Revered to the last
Now they talk about your fall from grace
How the mighty fall
I've seen it all before
From the highest heights
To the lowest of lows
How the mighty fall
(How the mighty fall)
How the mighty fall
(How the mighty fall)
How the mighty fall
(How the mighty fall)
The harder, the harder, the harder they fall
(How the mighty fall)
The harder, the harder, the harder they fall
(How the mighty fall)
How the mighty fall
Early one morning
Across the fields of dawn
Crooked is the shadow
That falls on my land
Storm clouds overhead
Like birds of prey in wait
How can we undo
What cannot be undone
I feel the darkness heavy
Heavy on my heart
There's distance between us
Tearing us apart
How many rivers must I cross?
Somehow, somewhere I will find a way
How many rivers must I cross?
Somehow, somewhere I will find a way to cross
I see the proud black mountain
Beneath an angry sun
Under drowning valleys
Our disappearing tongue
How many battles must we fight
Before we start a war?
How many wounds will open
Before the first blood falls?
Once the banks are broken
Floods must surely come
Once the land rips open
Rivers of blood will run
How many rivers must I cross?
Somehow, Somewhere I will find a way
How many rivers must I cross?
Somehow, somewhere I will find a way to cross
How many battles must we fight
Before we start a war?
How many wounds will open
Before the first blood falls?
How many rivers must I cross?
Somehow, Somewhere I will find a way
How many rivers must I cross?
Somehow, somewhere I will find a way to cross
Pit shaft wheels turn for the last time
In the Rhondda tonight
The Davey lamps that shone so brightly
There's no more need for their light
As the last piece of coal is cut
From the belly of the black seamed hole
A man walks home alone
Past a church full of mourning souls
Throughout his lifetime he has fought
He has given his life
In tears the congregation sing
Cwm Rhondda Oh my Lord
Great is the rape of the fair country
To Botany Bay for my Great Grandfathers
Deportation sailed
Great so great is the fair country
GREAT IS THE NEED FOR A NEW SOUTH WALES
The slag heap stares
It blocks out the sky
It kees this Rhondda grey
The stale beer spills from angry drinkers
Their arguments do the same
A choir voice cries it shatters the silence
Where's the future in this place
The question hangs unanswered
All eyes on a new born babe
In another lifetime men fought hard
Men gave their lives
For the charter that would save their sons
Cwm Rhondda Oh my Lord
Great, great change in the fair country
The future lies with the sons and daughters
South will meet with North
Say, say a prayer for the fair country
GREAT IS THE NEED FOR A NEW SOUTH WALES
Throughout a lifetime men have fought
Men have given their lives
To hear the congregation sing
CWM RHONDDA OH MY LORD
Great, great change in the fair country
The future lies with the sons and daughters
South will meet with North
Say, say a prayer for the fair country
GREAT IS THE NEED FOR A NEW SOUTH WALES
Someone hear my prayer
Someone hear my prayer
Someone hear my prayer
Someone hear my prayer
Someone hear my prayer
Someone hear my prayer
Someone hear my prayer
For A NEW SOUTH WALES
