Cave Man Lyrics


Chris Smither Cave Man


When I was a caveman
Paintin' on the walls
I never had a dollar
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
Screamin' at the walls
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
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
It's how I feel

When I was a dreamer
Floatin' through the walls
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 have saved your soul
I do believe
I do believe

Then I'll be an old man
Starin' 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 on my way
Before it's gone
Before it's gone

Oh 'round we go
These faces show
They leave and every
One seems ever real

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
