Sunrise, Sunset
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Is this the little girl I carried?
Is this the little boy at play?
I don't remember getting older,day by day
Sunrise, sunset, swiftly fly the years
One season following the other
Laden with happiness and tears
When did she get to be a beauty
When did he grow to be so tall
Wasn't it yesterday when they were small?
Sunrise, sunset, swiftly fly the years
One season following the other
Laden with happiness and tears
