Ian Hunter - You Nearly Did Me In lyrics

(ian hunter) 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 - 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 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 i'll tell you something baby - i feel the pain just like the sea Chorus
