I have seen the sun rise and fall
I have tasted pleasure, held it all
Yet in the end it slips away
Like morning dew at break of day

And still the rose blooms in the dust
And still the heart can learn to trust
The vanity you see is true
But love can make all things new

Under the sun, all is fleeting
But love remains, love is worth repeating
Though everything turns to dust and sand
Love still holds us in her hand

So let the wind blow where it will
I will hold the flame that love instills
