Needles and Pins Lyrics

I saw her today
I saw her face
It was a face I love

And I knew
I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray
That they go away

Still they begin
Needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide

Hey, I thought I was smart
I won her heart
Didn't think I'd do

But now I see
She's worse to him than me
Let her go ahead
And take his love instead

Then one day she will see
Just how to say please
And get down on her knee
Yeah, that's how they begin
She'll feel those needles and pins are hurtin' her, hurtin' her

Why can't I stop and tell myself I'm wrong?
I'm wrong so wrong
Why can't I stand up and tell myself I'm strong?

Oh, because I saw her today
I saw her face
It was a face I love

And I knew
I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray
That they go away

Still they begin
Needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide

Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins

Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins
