The Man Who Sold The World Lyrics - Man Who Sold The World - David Bowie

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 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 

Photos 

Who knows? Not me 

We never lost control 

You're face to face 

With the man who sold the world
