Sunrise, Sunset Lyrics

[Intro]
Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset

[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 they gaze
Sunrise sunset, sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears

[Outro]
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears
Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
