Lyrics Without The Chords

When the risk of frost is over

And the sun seeks the shadows on Bilston Glen

My thoughts turn to another time
I remember the coalface men

The curious ivy climbs so high
And covers the mines, as the mills before
And all things changed in these colliery towns
With the strike of '84

Chorus
And maybe it's time to say goodbye
Those damned days, just let them lie
Though their dream should never die
It's time for moving on

When the risk of frost is over
And flowers of spring are all around
Hiding all those memories
When fathers fought with sons

When the risk of frost is over

And winter’s snows past and gone
The warmth comes to the land now
It's time for moving on

Chorus

When the risk of frost is over

And December grey has turned to green
I walk the fields of Lothian
And remember the price theypaid

When the risk of frost is over
The sun seeks the shadows on Bilston Glen
My thoughts turn to another time
I remember the coalface men

Chorus
It's (time for moving on
