The Man Who Sold the World (Live at the Phoenix Festival, Long Marston, 20th July, 1997)

We passed upon the stair
We spoke of was and when
Although I was not there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a 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 form and land
Years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazely star
Of 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, yeah

(extended live instrumentals/guitar solo)

Who knows, not me
We 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
