Verse 1:
Times slipping away,
Like pockets full of sand.
I am just a man,
Oh, I am just a man.
Someday you’ll understand.
Someday we’ll meet again.

Chorus:
It’s the circle of life son,
Your time has just begun.
It’s the circle of life son,
And it’s looks like I am done.

Verse 2:
Every dog has his day,
All bones will decay.
The flesh will betray.
But no matter how fast one runs,
They can’t get away.
No, they can’t get away.

Chorus:
It’s the circle of life son,
Your time has just begun.
It’s the circle of life son,
And it’s looks like I am done.

Verse 3:
The angels serenade,
Ashes entombed by clay.
Carried by a tear filled parade.
What a somber day,
What a somber day.
But don’t worry child; it’ll be okay.
It’ll be okay.

Bridge:
You can hold me in your heart,
I’ll never let go,
Till we meet again,
Down the road.

Chorus:
It’s the circle of life son,
Your time has just begun.
It’s the circle of life son,
And it’s looks like I am done.
