Sunrise Lyrics - Divine Comedy

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 

I grew up in Enniskillen 

I grew up in Inis Ceathlain 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 

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?

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 sunrise 

Can you see the sunrise? 

I can see the sunrise 

It's the sun rising
