I saw her today, I saw her face It was the face I loved, and I knew I had to run away And get down on my knees and pray, that they go away And 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 I 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 Oh that's how it begins, she'll feel those needles and pins Hurtin' 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 Because,I saw her today, I saw her face It was the face I loved, and I knew I had to run away And get down on my knees and pray, that they go away And still it begins, needles and pins Because of all my pride, the tears I gotta hide Needles and pins, needles and pins, needles and pins
