I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room

All I want's the love you've promised beneath the halo moon

But you think I should be happy with your money and your name

Sit alone and hide my sorrows while you play your cheatin' game



Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine

And I dare drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your mind

You can't buy my love with money 'cause I ain't never been that kind

Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine
