Sunrise Sunset

Sunrise, Sunset
- Matt Monro

Is this the little girl I carried?
Is this the little boy at play?
I dont remember growing older,
When did they?

When did she get to be a beauty?
When did he grow to be so tall?
Wasnt it yesterday
when they were small?

Sunrise sunset, sunrise, sunset,
Swiftly flow the days,
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers,
Blossoming even as they gaze . . .

Sunrise sunset, sunrise, sunset!
Swiftly fly the years,
One season following another,
Laden with happiness and tears . . .
