Lyrics

SUNRISE, MOONRISE words & music Susan Nikas

She was just a small town girl
Sunrise, moonrise round and round
Trying to make her life a pearl
Sunrise, moonrise day is done
Secret chances we all take
Secret bargains we all make
When the wheel is slowing down
Sunrise, moonrise round and round

They met and parted in the same year
Sunrise, moonrise round & round
He broke her heart without a tear
Sunrise, moonrise day is done
Secret chances we all take
Secret bargains we all make
When the wheel is slowing down
Sunrise, moonrise, round and round

He built success out of years of pain
Sunrise, moonrise round and round
He never saw her face again
Sunrise, moonrise day is done
Secret chances we all take
Secret bargains all make
When the wheel is slowing down
Sunrise, moonrise round and round

nice village green feel

very nice tune,fine old time feel. reminds me a bit of tim & mollie o'brians work. like the return to the round and round line, sets the story up nicely and helps w/ the old time quality.
