From the day we arrive on the planet And blinking step into the sun Theres more to be seen that can never be seen More to do than can ever be done Some say eat or be eaten Some say live and let live But all are agree as they join the stampede Never take more than you give In the circle of life Its the wheel of fortune Its the leap of faith Its the band of hope Till we find our place On the path unwinding In the circle The circle of life Some of us fall by the wayside Some of us soar to the stars And as some of us sail through our troubles Some have to live with the scars Theres far too much to take in here More to find than can ever be found But the sun rolling high in the saphire sky Keeps great and small on the endless round The circle of life Its the wheel of fortune Its the leap of faith Its the band of hope Till we find our place On the path unwinding In the circle The circle of life Its the wheel of fortune Its the leap of faith Its the band of hope Till we find our place On the path unwinding In the circle The circle of life On the path unwinding In the circle The circle of life
