Sunrise, Sunset - Hit Co. Masters

Is this the little girl I carried

Is this the little boy at play

I don’t remember growing older

When did they?

When did she get to be a beauty

When did he grow to be so tall?

Wasn’t it yesterday

when they were small?

Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset

swiftly pass the days

seedlings grow overnight to sun flowers

blossoming even as we gaze.

Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset

swiftly fly the years

one season following another

laden with happiness and tears.

Now is the little boy a bride groom

Now is the little girl a bride

Under the canopy I see them

Side by side

Place the gold ring around her finger

share the sweet wine and

break the glass

Soon the full circle will have

come to pass

Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset

swiftly pass the days

seedlings grow overnight to sun flowers

blossoming even as we gaze.

Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset

swiftly fly the years

one season following another

laden with happiness and tears.
