| In fields of green, vast as the oceans | |
| Is this a dream, is it evermore? | |
| A million years, fast as a notion | |
| I stand alone here on the silent shore | |
| I'm after prey in the fields | |
| Shelter in a cave from the cold and lonely nights | |
| And now it all seems so real | |
| warming at the fireside beneath the pale moonlight | |
| This is the dawn of time | |
| I am the first to stand | |
| Looking through the eyes of the primal man | |
| This is the dawn of time | |
| Witnessing the birth | |
| I am the first man on earth | |
| The skies of blue reach to the heavens | |
| They go on and on forevermore | |
| No avenues, no city sidewalks | |
| Planet Mars is but ancient lore | |
| This place has all that I need | |
| No computers glowing screens, no industrial machines | |
| Somehow it all seems surreal | |
| Memories of days gone by, a slowly fading scene | |
| This is the dawn of time | |
| I am the first to stand | |
| Looking through the eyes of the primal man | |
| This is the dawn of time | |
| Witnessing the birth | |
| I am the first man on earth | |
| No one here to blame me | |
| No one here to hurt | |
| So much space here to occupy my mind | |
| I can breathe the breath of virgin land | |
| The firefly at nighttime | |
| The sounds of nothing known | |
| And I belong here like I never have before | |
| The wandering child returning home | |
| When twilight falls, red is the sunset | |
| Planets appear across the colored sky | |
| No prison walls, no war, no bloodshed | |
| Hard to believe this new world will die | |
| I wish that I could stay for a while | |
| In the dream world that the sequencer creates | |
| And though it all seems so real | |
| Now I fear the time is gone, I feel its heavy weight | |
| This is the dawn of time | |
| I am the first to stand | |
| Looking through the eyes of the primal man | |
| This is the dawn of time | |
| Witnessing the birth | |
| I am the first man on earth | |
| Hold on to this moment in time (Hold on) | |
| Savor a life how it used to be (Savior this moment... how it used to be) | |
| Hold on to the world in its prime (In its prime) | |
| Breathe in the air, feel the energy (Feel the energy) |
