Hollow Of The Sun
Rain falls down
In coal black pins
The night abounds
With love and sin
Hopes and dreams
All in our heads
I still hear the last words
That she said
Just take me back
To Saunders West Virginia
Where the mountain and the valley
They came down as one
There I lived with my May
And a precious little girl
Now they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
All that's left
Is in my head
Memories of faces living and dead
Her final fear
I could not relieve
Now I'm searching for something to believe
Just take me back
To Saunders West Virginia
Where the mountain and the valley
They came down as one
There I lived with my May
And a precious little girl
Now they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
Pull you close
One last time
Everything will be just fine
Tell me girl when did she break
When the walls come tumbling down
Through the valley and the town
And money rained
Down Down
It rained
Down Down
Down on us
Well I guess
It somehow had to be
Behold the beast of opportunity
I heard it said
God showed his hand
But I tell you sir it was an act of Man
An act of Man
Just take me back
To Saunders West Virginia
Where the mountain and the valley
They came down as one
There I lived with my May
And a precious little girl
Now they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
Yes they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
In coal black pins
The night abounds
With love and sin
Hopes and dreams
All in our heads
I still hear the last words
That she said
Just take me back
To Saunders West Virginia
Where the mountain and the valley
They came down as one
There I lived with my May
And a precious little girl
Now they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
All that's left
Is in my head
Memories of faces living and dead
Her final fear
I could not relieve
Now I'm searching for something to believe
Just take me back
To Saunders West Virginia
Where the mountain and the valley
They came down as one
There I lived with my May
And a precious little girl
Now they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
Pull you close
One last time
Everything will be just fine
Tell me girl when did she break
When the walls come tumbling down
Through the valley and the town
And money rained
Down Down
It rained
Down Down
Down on us
Well I guess
It somehow had to be
Behold the beast of opportunity
I heard it said
God showed his hand
But I tell you sir it was an act of Man
An act of Man
Just take me back
To Saunders West Virginia
Where the mountain and the valley
They came down as one
There I lived with my May
And a precious little girl
Now they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
Yes they're lyin' on a hillside
In the Hollow of the Sun
