Lyrics Sunrise, Sunset - Ray Conniff

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years

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 get to be so tall?
Wasn't it yesterday
When they were small?

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years

Now is the little boy a bridegroom?
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 break the glass
Soon the full 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
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
