Lyrics:

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
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 won her heart, didn't think I'd do
But now I see, she's worse to him than me
Let her go ahead, take yours love instead
And 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
Are hurtin' her, are 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
That they'd go away
But still they begin
Needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide
Oh, needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins
