The Man Who Sold the World

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 gazeless stare

And all the millions here

We must have died alone

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

Oh no, not me

We never lost control

You're face to face

With the man who sold the world
