Sweet Jesus

[Verse 1]

Talkin' down the line

I nearly lost my mind

Nearly lost you, babe

I think about you child

Through my sick and twisted smile

I nearly lost you, babe

Shakin' in my hands

I just don't understand

Nearly lost ya, Mama

Lovin' just to hate

A war that just won't wait

I nearly lost ya, babe

[Chorus]

My eyes have gone blind

Though the past I just can't find

A flower to be saved, a flower for your grave

Mama at times I just don't know

Oh sweet Jesus, where did I go?

[Verse 2]

What it was to be

Was kinda clear to see

Nearly lost ya, babe

There ain't no backin' down

'Cause I ain't nobody's clown

I nearly lost you, Mama

Breakin' down inside, yeah

I nearly lost you, babe

Forever one more time

Until the day I die

I nearly lost ya, babe

[Chorus]

My eyes have gone blind

Though the past I just can't find

A flower to be saved, a flower for your grave

No, I just don't know, oh, sweet Jesus

Where did I go, where'd I go?

[Solo]

Oh yeah

[Chorus]

Though my eyes they have gone blind

An' this I just can't find, no

Flower to be saved, a flower for your grave

Mama, I just don't know

Oh sweet Jesus, where did I go?
