The Man Who Sold The World Lyrics

[Verse 1: Roxane Barker]
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: Roxane Barker & Sam Paul Evans]
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face through face
With the man who sold the world

[Verse 2: Roxane Barker with Sam Paul Evans]
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: Roxane Barker & Sam Paul Evans]
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
[Harmonization Outro: Roxane Barker & Sam Paul Evans]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
