Circle Of Life
Elton John
Music by Elton John/Lyrics by Tim Rice
Available on the soundtrack The Lion King
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever 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 agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give
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
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 the scars
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 roundMEMORIES OF YOU AND ME
FLASH INTO MY MIND.
I CLOSE MY EYES
AND START TO TRAVEL BACK IN TIME.
I WANNA' KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE WHAT I CAN SEE.
I NEED TO KNOW IF YOU'RE STILL IN LOVE WITH ME.
CHORUS:
TAKE A LOOK AT ME NOW.
I'VE GOT TEARS IN MY EYES.
I'M NOT HALF THE ONE I USED TO BE
WHEN I WAS WITH YOU.
LOOK AT ME NOW,
I FEEL TWISTED INSIDE.
LOOK AT ME NOW...
BUT DON'T TELL ME OUR LOVE HAS DIED.
FANTASIES OF YOU AND ME
A BLUEPRINT OF OUR LOVE.
TELL ME NOW IF I SHOULD STAY OR GIVE UP.
I WANNA' KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE WHAT I CAN SEE.
I NEED TO KNOW IF YOU'RE STILL IN LOVE WITH ME.
(CHORUS)
LOOK AT ME NOW.
I FEEL TWISTED INSIDE.
LOOK AT ME NOW.
BUT DON'T TELL ME OUR LOVE HAS DIED...
