Leaving My Family Behind Me

Not Knowing What Lay Ahead

Waving Goodbye, As I Left Them In Tears

Remembering All We'd Said



I Looked To The Sky, I Offered My Prayers

I Asked Him For Guidance And Strength

But The Simple Beliefs Of A Simple Man

Lay In His Hands, And On My Head

My Head



I Gave Everything That They Wanted

But Still They Wanted More

We Sweat And We Toiled

Good Men Lost Their Lives

I Don't Think They Knew What For



I Sold Them My Heart

I Sold Them My Soul

I Gave Everything I Had

But They Couldn't Break My Spirit

My Dignity Fought Back

Fightback

Just Fightback



Can You Hear Me

Can You See

Don't You Hear Me

Don't You See



We Worked In Gangs For All We Were Worth

The Young Boys Pulling The Wagons

We Were Digging The Tunnels, Shifting The Earth

It Was Then That It Happened



No-one Knew How The Cracks Appeared

But As It Fell They All Disappeared

Stone Fell Like Rain



Can You Hear Me

Can You See

Don't You Hear Me

Can You Breathe



The Smoke Cleared, The Dust It Settled

No One Knew How Many Had Died

All Around There Were Broken Men

They'd Said It Was Safe, And They'd Lied

You Could Hear The Cries, You Could Smell The Fear

But Good Fortune That Day Was Mine

And It Occurred To Me That The Heart Of A Good Man

It Seems Is Hard To Find



Can You Hear Me

Can You See

Don't You Hear Me

Don't You See

How We Worked, How We Worked Like

The Devil For Our Pay

Through The Wind, Through The Snow

And Through The Rain



Blasting And Cutting Through Gods Country Like A Knife

Sweat Stinging My Eyes, There Has To Be A Better Life



But I Can Hear My Children's Cry

I Can See The Tears In Their Eyes

Memories Of Those I've Left Behind

Oh Just Still Ringing In My Ears

Will I Ever Go Back Again

Will I Ever See Her Face Again

Cos I'll Always Re
