How long has the world been turning old?
Even wise men can not save
Sometimes it seems the fires of hate
Are burning all the Love away
Earth could be a better place
We could put an end to all despair
It would be a simple thing
If we only learn to share
I say circle, circle around the sun
Look at what this child called man has done
Somehow we must make amends
We're quickly heading for the end my friend
Some folks have to suffer
Just because all the things they haven't done
Some folks forget about their neighbors
Even though they got a lot
Never taking time to think
Seems as how they ain't got time to care
Lingering onto selfish things
Somehow they forget to share
Come on circle, circle around the sun
Look at what this child called man has done
Somehow we must make amends
We're quickly heading for the end my friend
Circle around the sun
Heaven help the helpless
Have them hurry on up their merry way (Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless) Oh Lord
And Man needs to bring a little light into someone's weary day (Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless)
Have mercy now, You don't hear me (Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless)
I know it ain't too much just some good vibrations floating in the air, everywhere (Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless)
What this simple song I sing is the only thing I got to share (Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless, Heaven help the helpless)
Come on circle, circle around the sun
Look at what this child called man has done
Somehow we must make amends
We're quickly heading for the end my friend
