[Verse 1]
              
We passed upon

     
 the stair
              
We spoke of wa

          
s and when
              
Although I was

    
n't there
              
He said I was 

          
his friend
              
Which came as 

        
some surprise
              
I spoke into h

   
is eyes
              
I thought you 

      
died alone
              
A long long ti

     
me ago

[Chorus 1]
          
Oh no, not me
           
I never lost c

   
ontrol
             
You're face to

 
 face
           
With the man w

[Verse 2]
              
I laughed and 

          
shook his hand
              
And made my wa

           
y back home
              
I searched for

          
 form and land
              
For years and 

              
years I roamed
              
I gazed a gaze

   
ly stare
              
At all the mil

      
lions here
              
We must have d

     
ied alone
              
A long long ti

     
me ago

[Chorus 2]
             
Who knows, not

 
 me
           
We never lost 

    
control
             
You're face to

 
 face
