Saw him today

I saw his face, it was the face I love

And I knew I had to run away

And get down on my knees and pray

That they 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 won his heart

I didn't think I'd lose

But I see she worst to him than me

Let him go ahead take her love instead

And one day he will see

Just how to say please



Wow and get down on his knees

That's how it begins

Hurtin' him hurtin' him

Why can't I stop and tell myself

It's wrong so wrong

Why can't I stand up

Tell myself to be strong



Because I saw him today

I saw his face it was the face I love

I can't let go, although I know

He'll make me cry until the day I die



But people I got to live now

Wow lord knows I should forgive now

That's how they begin

You'll feel those needles and pins



Somebody stop'em now

Stop those needles and pins

Somebody take'em away now

Stop those needles and pins
