Programming specific shape movements

I need to program an effect where 2 moving lights make mirrored circles that run repeatedly. However, when I use the effect that has a pre built circle, it doesn't actually look like a circle on the stage. Also, they tend to not start and end together. Can anyone give me guidance on haw to make something like this?

    In order to create a perfect circle, the lights need to be shining on a surface that is completely flat and 90 degrees to the center of the circle. E.G. a light is hung pointing straight down on a flat floor and the center point of the circle is the light's home position. The more you deviate from this angle, the more elliptical the shape will be.
