I saw her today, I saw her face It was a face I loved, and I knew I had to run away I got down on my knees and prayed That they'd go away, but still they began Needles and pins Because of all my pride The tears I gotta hide Oh, I thought I was smart I'd want her heart, didn't think I'd do But now you see, she's worse to him than me Let her go ahead and take his love instead And one day she will see just how to save these And get down on her knees That's how they begin 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 Get down on my knees and prayed That they'd go away, but still they began 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
