Lyrics

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-ay That they'd go away But still they begin Needles and pins-a Because of all my pride The tears I gotta hide Hey, I thought I was smart I'd win his heart Ah, 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-a Oh, and get down on his knees-a Hey, that's how it begins-a He'll feel those needles and pins Hurtin' him, hurtin' 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 Yea, when it begins-a He'll feel those needles and pins A-hurtin' him, stop it now Stop those needles Stop those pins Lord, when they begin-a Oh, won't you hear what I say? Somebody, a-take 'em away Stop 'em now, stop 'em Stop those needles and pins Lord, yeah, oh, when they begin-a I feel those needles and pins Hurtin' me, hurtin' me Stop 'em now, needles and pins
