Needles and Pins

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
