Lyrics

Rafiki:
If you wanna go fast, go alone
There's the road
Off you go
But if you wanna go far
We go together
So good, so far
We go together

Zazu:
Your father left you in my care
And now, we're running who-knows-where
Sometimes, you need a bird's eye view

Sarabi and Zazu:
And I've got you to see me through
By land, by air

Rafiki:
If you wanna go fast, go alone

Sarabi:
Day and night

Rafiki:
There's the road

Sarabi:
I just might

Rafiki:
Off you go

Sarabi:
Yeah, right

Sarabi, Rafiki, and Zazu:
If you wanna go far
We go together
So good, so far
We go together

Mufasa:
I will find my family again
I will walk with you until then
I will walk with you 'til the end
It's much easier with a friend

Zazu:
Yoo-hoo

Mufasa and Sarabi:
I will find my family again

Zazu:
Bird's eye view

Mufasa and Sarabi:
I will walk with you until then

Zazu:
Me and you

Mufasa and Sarabi:
I will walk with you 'til the end

Zazu:
Flying through

Mufasa and Sarabi:
It's much easier with a friend

Taka:
Like the clouds and rain
Like a meal in a field of grain
Like the flecks of gold in your mane
Sarabi
You and me
We go together

Zazu:
Yoo-hoo

Taka:
Like the clouds and rain

Mufasa and Sarabi:
We will find our family again

Zazu:
Bird's eye view

Taka:
Like a meal in a field of grain

Mufasa and Sarabi:
We will walk together 'til then

Zazu:
Me and you

Taka:
Like the flecks of gold in your mane

Mufasa and Sarabi:
We will find our way to the end

Zazu:
Flying through

Taka:
Sarabi

Mufasa and Sarabi:
It's much easier with a friend

Taka:
You and me
We go together

Rafiki:
My brother waits for me to find him

Zazu:
Yoo-hoo

Taka:
Like the sea and skies

Mufasa and Sarabi:
We will find our family again

Rafiki:
My brother knows I'm right behind him

Zazu:
Bird's eye view

Taka:
Like the bird that sings at sunrise

Mufasa and Sarabi:
We will walk together 'til then

Rafiki:
My brother tends to lose his way and go astray

Zazu:
Me and you

Taka:
Like the flecks of gold in your eyes

Mufasa and Sarabi:
We will find our way to the end

Rafiki:
Say, if you see my brother, please remind him

Zazu:
Flying through

Taka:
Sarabi

Mufasa and Sarabi:
It's much easier with a friend

You and I
We go together
