[Verse 1]
Morning light on the kitchen floor, coffee cups and open door
Laughter echoes down the hall, I can hear my mother’s call
Brother’s teasing, sister’s smile, staying with me all the while
In this circle, safe and warm, I have weathered every storm
[Chorus]
This is home, this is where my heart belongs
In the circle of the ones who make me strong
Through the laughter and the tears, through the passing of the years
I will hold them close, I’ll sing this song
In the circle of the ones I love so long
[Verse 2]
Best friend’s shoulder, late-night talks, walking down familiar walks
Promises we made in rain, every joy and every pain
Family ties that never break, every step for goodness’ sake
In this circle, hand in hand, I will always understand
[Bridge]
When the world feels cold and wide, and I have nowhere left to hide
They are the shelter and the light, turning darkness into bright
No matter where the road may bend, they are with me to the end
[Chorus]
This is home, this is where my heart belongs
In the circle of the ones who make me strong
Through the laughter and the tears, through the passing of the years
I will hold them close, I’ll sing this song
In the circle of the ones I love so long
[Outro]
Circle of the ones I love, rising like the stars above
Everlasting, true and free, you are everything to me
In the circle, I belong, singing on and on and on
