Sunrise Sunset

Sung by Father of Bride

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 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 bridegroom,

Now is the little girl a bride

Under the canopy I see them, side by side

Place the gold ring upon her finger

Drink 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
