Nothing New Under The Sun

Lyrics

Baby's eyes light up with every new thing he sees Every new touch he feels crawling on his knees He's learning, learning to live Reading from a book or building in the snow Jumping higher to reach ever seeking to know He's learning, learning to grow [Chorus] There's nothing new under the sun There's nothing new under the sun Bees making honey Swallows moving on He sits by the river and he stares at the trees He wonders at beauties around that he sees He's learning, learning to love Taking home his money feeling good he's alive His future is doubtful, but time is on his side He's learning, learning to survive [Chorus] There's nothing new under the sun There's nothing new under the sun Bees making honey Swallows moving on He plays with the children he loves big and bold Laughs at the good times, distracts from the cold He's learning to be old Though his heart's a little heavy he won't cry He can still see the birds making way in the sky He's learning, learning to die [Chorus] There's nothing new under the sun There's nothing new under the sun Bees making honey Swallows moving on As I sing this song I get a feeling something isn't right Someone is interfering with the cycle of life They've taken the days and turned them into night They alter the climate and say it's their right [Chorus] There's something new under the sun There's something new under the sun No bees making honey or swallows moving on Swallows moving on
