Ive been living in a hurry

Searchin' for my place in time

Daily life is getting to me

Same old people, same old grind



Standing on a crowded sidewalk

No one looks you in the eye

Its like were all just missing something

And life just keeps on passing by



CHORUS:

So come on

Wont you stop and smell the roses

Come along

Days go by before you know it

Round and round we go

When it stops nobody knows

So open up your heart, enjoy the ride

Circle of life

Circle, circle of life



Mrs. Johnson in her big house

Perfect life, white picket fence

But in the night youll hear her crying

Praying for a second chance



When we search for all that glitters

It only leads us to fool's gold

Going faster into nowhere

Hoping glorys down the road



CHORUS



Like a photograph in time

The livings in between the lines

So close your eyes and hope you find the right direction

Make a real connection to life



CHORUS



Round and round we go

When it stops nobody knows

Circle, circle of life
