Caveman Lyrics - Small Revelations - Chris Smither

When i was a caveman 

painting on the wall 

i never had a dollar 

but man, i had it all 

and i was very high 

in the order of things. 

Just one step and I'd 

spread my wings and fly 

Oh, i would fly 

Oh, just one step 

one step and i could spread 

my wings to fly. 

When i was a liar 

screaming at the wall 

i never heard a whisper 

i could not hear at all 

and i could only cry 

for pity of me 

never know the truth 

might set me free 

might set me free 

Oh, round we go 

and these faces show 

they leave and every one 

seems ever real 

and each one is truly mine 

they never last 

but at the time 

it's how i feel 

each one is truly mine 

they never last 

but at the time 

its how i feel 

When i was a dreamer 

floating through the wall 

nothing was forever 

i could change it all 

and i could live with 

my heart on my sleeve 

i could save your soul 

i do believe 

i do believe 

oh, i could save your soul 

i could've saved your soul 

i do believe 

i do believe 

Then I'll be an old man 

staring at the wall 

looking for an answer 

to make sense of it all 

and i can safely say 

that if it comes my way 

it will not stay for long 

and I'll be in my way 

before it's gone 

before it's gone 

Oh, round we go and 

these faces show 

they leave and every one 

seems ever real 

and each one is truly mine 

they never last 

but at the time it's how i feel 

it's how i feel 

they never last 

but at the time it's how i feel 

but when i was a caveman 

when i was a caveman 

i had it all 

i had it all.
