Sunrise, Sunset

Is this the little girl I carried?
 Is this the little boy at play?
 I don't remember growing older
 When did they?
 When she did get to be a beauty?
 When did he grow to be this tall?
 Wasn't it yesterday when they were small?
 ♪
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly flow the days
 Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
 Blossoming even as we gaze
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly fly the years
 One season following another
 Laden with happiness and tears
 ♪
 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
 They look so natural together
 Just like two newly weds should be
 Is there a canopy in store for me?
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly flow the days
 Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
 Blossoming even as we gaze
 Sunrise, sunset
 Swiftly fly the years
 One season following another
 Laden with happiness and tears
