Sorrys Lyrics

You were born in the shade
Beautiful and pale
Your Dad was always away
You gave birth in July
Since then my baby and I
Well we hide away
Sorrys
Seven years of sorrys
I was trying to catch your eye
Rolling down the river you are caught in
I saw you flowing
And couldn't swim back
On Elis Island's ferry
It was too cold and shaky
He thought he saw you waving
I guess he wasn't ready
To be raised by someone unhappy
I took all the pain for him

Sorrys
Seven years of sorrys
I was trying to catch your eye
Rolling down the river you are caught in
I saw you flowing
And couldn't swim back
You were born in the shade
Beautiful and pale
Your Dad was always away
