On the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
(Ever be done)

There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
(Ever be found)
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
(And it moves us all)
Through despair and hope
(Through despair and hope)
Through faith and love
(Through faith and love)

'Till we find our place
('Till we find our place)
On a path unwinding (ooh)
In the circle
The circle of life

Night and the spirit of life
Calling, calling oh

Wait
There's no mountain too great
Calling, calling oh

He lives in you (he lives in you)
He lives in me (he lives in me)
He watches over (he watches over)
Everything we see (everything we see)
Into the water (into the water)
Into the truth (into the truth)
In your reflection (ooh)
He lives in you

It's the circle of life (he lives in you)
And it moves us all (he lives in me)
Through despair and hope (he watches over)
Through faith and love (everything we see)

'Till we find our place (find our place)
On a path unwinding (on a path unwinding)
In the circle (in the circle)
In the circle (in the circle)
In the circle
The circle of life
