Sunrise, Sunset Songtext

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 flow the days Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers 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 Bless the gold ring around her finger Share the sweet wine and bread per glass Soon the whole circle will have come - to - pass Sunrise, sunset, Sunrise, sunset Swiftly flow the days Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers Blossoming even as we gaze Sunrise, sunset, Sunrise, sunset Swiftly fly the years One season following another Laden with happiness - and - tears... (Sunrise, sunset)
