The Rising Sun
The rising sun, the waning moon,
The ebbing tide, the coming noon,
Ebb and flow, wax and wane,
Peak and trough, lose and gain,
Birth and death, New and old,
All are in our future told,
Live today, without a care,
Take a chance, if you dare.
The ebbing tide, the coming noon,
Ebb and flow, wax and wane,
Peak and trough, lose and gain,
Birth and death, New and old,
All are in our future told,
Live today, without a care,
Take a chance, if you dare.
