Needles and Pins lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw her today
I saw her face, it was a face I loved
And I knew I had to run away, yeah
And get down on my knees and pray, yeah
That they'd go away

[Chorus]
Still it begins-a
Needles and pins-a
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide

[Verse 2]
Oh, I thought I was smart
I'd steal 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
Oh, that's how it begins-a
She'll feel those needles and pins
Hurting her, hurting her

[Hook]
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
[Verse 1]
Because I saw her today
I saw her face, it was a face I loved
And I knew I had to run away, yeah
And get down on my knees and pray, yeah
That they'd go away

[Chorus]
Still it begins-a
Needles and pins-a
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide

[Outro]
Hey, Needles and pins-a
Needles and pins-a
Needles and pins-a
