I saw her today
I saw her face
it was a face I loved
and I knew
I had to run away
Just get down
on my knees and pray
that they'd go away
but still they begin the
Needles and pins
because of all my pride
the tears I gotta hide
Hey I thought
I was smart
I'd won 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
Yeah that's how it begins
she'll feel those
needles and pins
hurting her, hurting 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?
Because I saw her today
I saw her face
it was a face I loved
and I knew
I had to run away
just get down
on my knees and pray
That they'd go away
but still they begin
the needles and pins
Because of all my pride
the tears I gotta hide
needles and pins
needles and pins
needles and pins
