i can't believe you met nancy / living down in london town / well, her life's the stuff of fables / and though i never really knew nancy / we grew up pretty much the same / on streets with painted gables / with the beatles in our cradles / where are you going and where have you been? / nancy, is your life falling in? / is the world too cold for you? / because the world's too cold for me / i kicked and scratched and stumbled / i lost a spark along the way / well i guess it's only natural / and now i can't believe you met nancy / you know, her daddy helped me out / with a painting of the mccartneys / in feathercuts and moonboots / where are you going and where have you been? / nancy, is your life falling in? / is the world too cold for you? / because the world's too cold for me / and do your old friends say that your accent's gone? / if you're lonely can you turn it on? / can you get it back? / can you get it back?
