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 it begins Needles and pins Because of all my pride The tears I gotta hide Oh! I thought I was smart I stole her heart Didn't think I 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 save me And get down on her knees That's how it begins She'll feel those needles and pins - oh, no - oh, no 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 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 it begins Needles and pins Because of all my pride The tears I gotta hide Hey! Needles and pins Needles and pins Needles and pins
