(Ian Hunter)

|
See lonely shadows - silver needles
|
Abandoned in the evening warmth
|
Lost children of the night - come catch the candle bright
|
I hear a hollow sound - falling to the ground - she's lost before she's found
|
|
Sad broken angels takin' rainbows
|
Out on the street for all to see
|
If we are the chosen few - what ever happened to
|
All those things we knew, if this is being free -
|
I'd rather search for me
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
You nearly did, you nearly did, you nearly did
|
You nearly did me in, you nearly did me in
|
And I need some place to hide - my weary anger down
|
|
Out on some misty distant highway
|
Feel like I thought a million miles
|
Is my search nearly done - I think I see someone
|
I get the urge to run on blindly through the rain,
|
and I fool myself again
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
What ever happened to dignity
|
What ever happened to integrity
|
What ever happened to honesty
|
Well I'll tell you something baby - I feel the pain just like the sea
|
|
CHORUS

You Nearly Did Me In
