[Verse 1]
I like the sunrise
'Cause it brings a new day
I like a new day
It brings new hope they say
[Verse 2]
I like the sunrise
Blazin' in the new sky
Nighttime is weary
Oh, oh and so am I
[Bridge]
Every evening I wish upon a star
That my brand-new bright tomorrow isn't very far
When that heavy blue curtain of night
Is raised up high, high in the sky
[Verse 3]
I like the sunrise
So heavenly to see
I like the sunrise
I hope it likes poor me
[Saxophone Solo]
[Bridge]
Every evening I wish upon a star
That my brand-new bright tomorrow isn't vеry far
When that heavy blue curtain of night
Is raisеd up high, high in the sky
[Verse 3]
I like the sunrise
So heavenly to see
I like the sunrise
I hope it likes poor me
I Like the Sunrise was written by Duke Ellington.
