Needles and Pins

[Verse 1]

I saw her today

I saw her face, it was a face I loved

And I knew I had to run away, yeah

And get down on my knees and pray, yeah

That they'd go away

[Chorus]

Still it begins-a

Needles and pins-a

Because of all my pride

The tears I gotta hide

[Verse 2]

Oh, I thought I was smart

I'd steal her heart, didn't think I'd do

But now I see, she's worse to him than me

Let her go ahead, take his love instead

And one day she will see just how to say please

And get down on her knees

Oh, that's how it begins-a

She'll feel those needles and pins

Hurting her, hurting her

[Hook]

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

[Verse 1]

Because I saw her today

I saw her face, it was a face I loved

And I knew I had to run away, yeah

And get down on my knees and pray, yeah

That they'd go away

[Chorus]

Still it begins-a

Needles and pins-a

Because of all my pride

The tears I gotta hide

[Outro]

Hey, Needles and pins-a

Needles and pins-a

Needles and pins-a
