Simple Minds
the man who sold the world
Select language to translate this lyric
We passed upon those stairs
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
Made my way back home
I searched for foreign land
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazely stare
To all the millions there
We must have 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
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face, to face
With the man who sold the world
