Circle

(album: Higher Ground - 1997)

Some say
the walls betweeen us stand so tall
they don't see there's just one sun
shining on us all
I say
we each choose roads to call our own
but none of us is travelling through
this universe alone
and this circle
just goes on and on
it began before us
it will be here when we've gone
and this circle
just goes on and on and on
connecting our humanity
joining me to you and you to me
seasons
keep spinning on the wheel of time
we stand we fall
we struggle up
the mountains we must climb
different dreams
may colour what we see ahead
but our lives are strong together
on a common thread
and this circle (circle)
just goes on and on (on and on)
it began before us
it will be here when we've gone
and this circle
just goes on and on and on
connecting our humanity
joining me to you and you to me
around and round and round and round we go
around and round and round we go
love and learn and change and grow
round and round and round we go
and this circle
touches everyone
as it crosses every boundry
underneath the sun
and this circle
just goes on and on
it began before us
it will be here when we're gone
yes this circle
just goes on and on and on
someday we will come to see
I'm joined to you and you to me
