Circle of Life
Embracing Life's Journey: The Circle of Wisdom in Helmut Lotti's Melody
Lyrics
Umm hmm
Expression of agreement or acknowledgment
Oh ho
Expressing emotions or reactions (repeated refrain)
Oh ho
-Oh ho
-Oh ho
-From the day we arrive on the planet
Reflection on the vastness of life upon arrival on the planet, emphasizing limitless possibilities
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
Introduction of contrasting philosophies on life, consensus on not taking more than giving
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
Describing life as a circular journey with elements like fortune, faith, hope, and finding one's place
It's the wheel of fortune
-It's the leap by 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
Acknowledging different life paths, some facing challenges and scars, while others soar
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
Highlighting the overwhelming nature of life, with the sun symbolizing continuity
More to find than can ever be found
-But the sun rollin' high
-Through the sapphire sky
-Keeps the great and small on the endless round
-In the circle of life
Reiteration of the circular nature of life, emphasizing fortune, faith, hope, and the journey to find one's place
It's the wheel of fortune
-It's the leap by faith
-It's the band of hope
-Till, we find our place
-On the path unwinding, yea
-In the circle
-The circle of life
Final emphasis on the circular path of life, with repetition of key themes
It's the wheel of fortune, yea
-It's the leap by faith
-It's the band of hope
-Till, we find our place
-On the path unwinding, yea
-In the circle
-The circle of life
-On the path unwinding, yea
Reiteration of the journey on the unwinding path within the circle of life
In the circle
-The circle of life
