It's only forever, not long at all - David Bowie

Well, I've been breaking these rocks And cutting this hay Yes, I've been breaking these rocks What's my price to pay? Well, the river's so muddy, but it may come clear And I know too well what's keeping me here I'm just a slave of a burning ray Oh, give me the night, I can't take another sight

You would think that a rock star being married to a super-model would be one of the greatest things in the world. It is.

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

Who knows? Not me.
We never lost control.
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
