[Verse 1]
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?
[Chorus]
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
Onе season following another
Laden with happinеss and tears
[Verse 2]
What words of wisdom can I give them?
How can I help to ease their way?
Now they must learn from one another
Day by day
Place the gold ring around her finger
Share the sweet wine and break the glass
Soon the full circle will have come to pass
[Chorus]
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
