Sunrise

verse 1 I was born in Londonderry I was born in Derry City too Oh what a special child To see such things and still to smile I knew that there was something wrong But I kept my head down and carried on verse 2 I grew up in Enniskillen I grew up in Inis Ceithleann too Oh what a clever boy To watch your hometown be destroyed I knew that I would not stay long So I kept my head down and carried on verse 3 Who cares where national borders lie Who cares whose laws you're governed by Who cares what name you call a town Who'll care when you're six feet beneath the ground Instrumental (x4) verse 4 From the corner of my eye A hint of blue in the black sky A ray of hope, a beam of light An end to thirty years of night The church-bells ring, the children sing What is this strange and beautiful thing It's the sunri----------se Can you see the sunri---------se? I can see the sunri----------se, I can see the sunri------------sing
