i saw her today

i saw here face

it was a face i love

and i knew

i have to run away yeah

and get down pn my knees and pray yeah

that they go away



still it begins

needles & pins

because of all my pride

the tears i gotta hide



oh i thought i was smart

i stole her heart

do think i did

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

she'll feel those needles and pins

hutin' 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 i saw her today

i saw her face

it was a face i loved

and i knew

i have to run away yeah

and get down on my knees and pray yeah

that they go away



still it begins

needles and pins

because of all my pride

the tears i gotta hide

oh needles and pins

needles and pins

needles and pins
