Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen that can ever be seen
More to do than could ever be done
[Verse 2]
Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live, yeah
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give
[Verse 3]
In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's a leap of faith
Oh, it's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
[Verse 4]
Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with our scars
[Verse 5]
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
[Verse 6]
In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
[Verse 7]
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
[Verse 8]
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
Written by: Elton John, Tim Rice
