The Circle Lyrics
I've been here for a million years
trough the joy, through the tears
but when I'm gone this will go on
and the circle starts again.
I've watched the mountains rise from dust
Saw the gold return to rust,
I had cried when the oceans died,
and the circle starts again.
I was here when the world began to turn
Kissed the sun as it started to burn,
The whispering at the reckoning
said: "The Circle starts again"
The moon was rising from above
I caught her eye and thought it was love,
but she turned her back,
the sky went black,
and the circle starts again..
I dance through castles made of stone
Walked the desert sands alone
In the midnight hour, You feel the power
and the circle starts again.
Now question falls to you my friend:
no beginning has no end,
will we ever learn?
with the world still turn?
will the circle start again?
trough the joy, through the tears
but when I'm gone this will go on
and the circle starts again.
Saw the gold return to rust,
I had cried when the oceans died,
and the circle starts again.
Kissed the sun as it started to burn,
The whispering at the reckoning
said: "The Circle starts again"
I caught her eye and thought it was love,
but she turned her back,
the sky went black,
and the circle starts again..
Walked the desert sands alone
In the midnight hour, You feel the power
and the circle starts again.
no beginning has no end,
will we ever learn?
with the world still turn?
will the circle start again?

The idea is that history repeats itself.
I've been here for a million years trough the joy, through the tears but when I'm gone this will go on and the circle starts again. This is said from the view of a god looking down upon the world he or she created.
I've watched the mountains rise from dust Saw the gold return to rust, I had cried when the oceans died, and the circle starts again. This shows that death comes all the time, and never stops coming.
I was here when the world began to turn Kissed the sun as it started to burn, The whispering at the reckoning said: "The Circle starts again" This shows that life comes all the time.
The moon was rising from above I caught her eye and thought it was love, but she turned her back, the sky went black, and the circle starts again.. This shows that love and betrayal has always existed and will exist forevermore.
The theme is reincarnation and the continuity of life. "When I'm gone, this will go on..."
The soul being reincarnated is emphasized here: "I dance through castles made of stone; Walked the desert sands alone"
