Little by little in slow degrees
The night's fading shadow lingers at dawn
Dreams of the ancients dwindle away
As the swallow takes flight into the day
To the follow the sun's daily journey
Over the horizon the mountains stand tall
As the shadows they cast move like tides
Down in the valley the grapevines awaken
Kissed by the shadows that pass through the day
To follow the sun's daily journey
To follow the sun as it travels each day
Bare witness to the fool who beats on the wall
Pleading for enlightenment to heaven's sweet graces
And whether the sun's setting will give rise to the dark
Is this a lesson to life's constant journey?
And to follow the sun's daily journey
To follow the sun as it travels each day
