Mataura Paper Mill Lyrics by Anthonie Tonnon

Leave Love Out of This

0

[Verse 1]
Mataura Paper Mill
Words are lost on this waterfall
If you search out the photograph
You will feel the power it held
I went over the bridge
To bypass Gore
I saw a world
We just failed to fight for
[Refrain]
I came down, I couldn't help myself
A neighbour drawn to watch the fire
But who am I to try to save this town
From a toxic ammonia cloud?
[Verse 2]
Mataura Paper Mill
Hearts are lost in the detail
Some protest, others not at all
What greater minds decide to mothball
And greater minds will always cross this bridge
To give their promise to the council
And greater minds always incorporate
So that no one can be held
So that no one can be held
So that no one can be held
Responsible
[Instrumental Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Mataura Paper Mill
Filled with dross from the smelter
All things flow in their natural course
To leave us with the liquidator
[Refrain]
But I am here I couldn't help myself
A neighbour drawn to watch the fire
Who were we, left to save this town?
From a toxic come on
From a toxic come on
From a toxic ammonia cloud
[Outro]
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on, come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
