Needles and Pins [1988 Re-Recording]

I saw her today
I saw her face
It was a face I loved and I knew
I had to got away
And get down on my knees and pray
That they’d go away

But still they begin
Those needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide

Hey I thought I was smart
I'd won 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
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
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 a face I loved and I knew
I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray

But still it begins
Those needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide

Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Those needles and pins

Stop those needles
Stop those needles
Oh and it begins
Oh you hear what I say
Somebody’s taking her away

Stop those needles
Stop those needles
Needles and pins
You know that when it begins
Needles and pins

Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins
