About the Artist
Lyrics
[Verse 1] 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" [Chorus] Oh no, not me I never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world [Verse 2] 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 havе died alone A long long time ago [Chorus] Who knows? Not mе We never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world Who knows? Not me We never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world
