We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

Oh no, not me I never lost control You're face to face With The Man Who Sold The World

I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here

We must have died along, a long long time ago Who knows? Not me

We never lost control You're face to face With the Man who Sold the World

Look who wrote the song!
