You Nearly Did Me In Lyrics


Mott The Hoople You Nearly Did Me In


See lonely shadows - silver needles
Abandoned in the evening war
Lost children of the night - come catch the candle
bright
I hear a hollow sound - falling to the ground - shes
lost before shes 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 -
Id 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 though 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 Ill tell you something baby - I feel the pain just
like the sea
