words to Everyday filched from saw docs website
The official statistics for last year state that over a thousand
young Irish women went on a joyless journey to Britain. An
average of three a day.
Everyday
Everyday she's on the boat
When it pulls out from the quay
Far from small town eyes she floats
Across the Irish Sea
She's the girl you know from down the road
She's your one from out the other side
There's a rumor she's in trouble
She's all mixed up inside
Everyday
She's wondering what they're thinking
Do they know what's going on?
She feels examined by their eyes
Is she right or is she wrong?
She's got a number in her pocket
And one change of clothes
Her innocence is fading
Like last years winter snow's
Everyday
Light a candle in the window
So she can see it from the road
With all the loving in your heart
Welcome her back home
Everyday
