|
I saw him today |
|
I saw his face |
|
It was a face I loved |
|
And I knew |
|
I had to run away |
|
And get down on my knees |
|
And pray that they'd go away |
|
But still they begin |
|
Needles and pins |
|
Because of all my pride |
|
The tears I gotta hide |
|
Hey, I thought I was smart |
|
I'd win his heart |
|
And I didn't think I'd lose |
|
But now I see |
|
She's more to him than me |
|
Let him go ahead |
|
Take her love instead |
|
And one day, he will see |
|
Just how to say please |
|
Oh, and get down on his knees |
|
Hey, that's how it begins |
|
He'll feel those needles and pins |
|
Hurting him, hurting him |
|
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 him today |
|
I saw his face |
|
It was a face I loved |
|
I can't let go |
|
Although I know |
|
He'll make me cry |
|
Oh, whoa, whoa |
|
Til the day I die |
|
But, people |
|
I got to live now |
|
And Lord knows |
|
I should forgive now |
|
Yeah, when it begins |
|
He'll feel those needles and pins |
|
Hurting him, oh, stop it now |
|
Stop those needles |
|
Stop those pins |
|
Don't let them begin |
|
Oh, won't you hear what I say |
|
Somebody, take em away |
|
Stop em now, stop em |
|
Stop those needles and pins |
|
Yeah, yeah, oh, when it begins |
|
I feel those needles and pins |
