Walls of the Cave Lyrics

The song Walls of the Cave is performed by Phish in the album named Round Room in the year 2002 .



I'm leaving you a message
I'm leaving you a trace
I'm leaving thoughts for you
I hope that time will not erase
And when the moment comes
To read the words that I engraved
You'll find them on the walls of the cave
Of the cave

I know you heard the question
But you didn't make a sound
And when it fell you caught my heart
Before it hit the ground
But if you ever need the names
Of those you couldn't save
You'll find them on the walls of the cave
You'll find them on the walls of the cave

Look at me and time stands still
A mountain here is now a hill
Look away
Look away
The time goes past
These rocks will fall away at last
Look away

Maybe you will see it
As you're pa*sing by alone
Below the moss forgotten
Where some words that turned to stone
It might have been an etching
On a marker of a grave
Or maybe on the walls of the cave

Listen to
The silent trees
But still your words
Float on the breeze
Look away
I see them all
Carved into
The cavern wall

Listen to
The silent trees
Listen to
The silent trees

Listen to
The silent trees
Listen to
The silent trees
