[Chorus]
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
Moon rolls through the nighttime
'Til the daybreak comes around
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
Seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
(You got it bro')
[Verse 1]
It seems like I've been here before
I can't remember when (Yes I can)
And I got this funny feeling
That we'll all be together again
There's no straight lines make up my life
And all my roads have bends
There's no clear-cut beginnings
And so far no dead-ends
(Steve, you got one for us?)
(You'll do the, the soft one, right?)
[Verse 2]
I found you a thousand times
I guess you've done the same
But then we lose each other
It's just like a children's game
As I find you here again
A thought runs through my mind
Our love is like a circle
Let's go around one more time
[Spoken]
It goes
"All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rolls through the nighttime
'Til the daybreak comes around"
Just think of me as Mitch Miller and you'll do fine
Are you ready? (Yeah!)
All my life's a circle comin' at ya - ah
[Chorus]
All my life's a circle (Sunrise)
Sunrise and sundown (The moon rolls through the nighttime)
The moon rolls through the nighttime ('Til the daybreak)
'Til the daybreak comes around (All my life)
All my life's a circle (But I can't tell you why)
But I can't tell you why (Seasons spinning)
The seasons spinning 'round again (The years)
The years keep rolling by
[Spoken]
I wanna show those of you who feel a little bit embarrassed that anybody can sing this song. First I'd like to call up the road crew. Mike Solomon and Jeff Gross, who also– Actually to call them a road crew is a gross injustice because they, they handle the sound, lights, and everything else. Jeff, Michael, come up here.
You guys have heard of Simon and Garfunkel right? Well these guys are sort of like the seventies answer to Simon and Garfunkel. They sound a little bit like Seals and Crofts and a little bit like Sears and Roebuck. Where you at? Okay, any time you're ready.
[Chorus]
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rolls through the nighttime
'Til the daybreak comes around
(They sing like Haldeman and Ehrlichman)
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
(Big ending guys)
Seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
(All right! Don't go away, don't go away)
[Spoken]
And if to make the final conclusive evidence, there's been a gentleman up here hiding behind his cello all night. And you may wonder why he plays the cello in the first place. Would you like to hear Michael sing this song? (Yeah!) Mike, stand up, leave the cello alone, and I want you to sing it with a great deal of feeling and soul.
[Chorus]
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rolls through the nighttime
'Til the daybreak comes around
(Mario Lanza lives)
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
(Big ending now, Michael)
Seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
[Spoken]
Well alright!
Are you guys ready to feel it now?
Are you ready to feel it?
All my life's a circle comin' at ya
Two, a-one two three four
[Chorus]
All my life's a circle (Sunrise)
Sunrise and sundown (The moon rolls through the nighttime)
The moon rolls through the nighttime ('Til the daybreak)
'Til the daybreak comes around (All my life)
All my life's a circle (But I can't tell you why)
But I can't tell you why (The seasons spinning)
The seasons spinning round again (The years)
The years keep rolling by
(One more time, now everybody get on your feet, feel it now - ah)
All my life's a circle (Sunrise)
Sunrise and sundown (The moon rolls through)
The moon rolls through the nighttime ('Til the daybreak)
'Til the daybreak comes around (All my life)
All my life's a circle (But I can't tell you)
But I can't tell you why (The seasons spinning)
The seasons spinning round again (The years)
The years keep rolling by
(A big ending now, a lot of harmony, the years keep rollin' by)
And the years keep on rolling by
