[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] But still they begin, uh Needles and pins, uh Because of all my pride The tears I gotta hide [Verse 2] Hey, I thought I was smart I'd won 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 [Chorus] Just how to say "Please", uh Oh, and get down on his knees, uh Hey, that's how it begins, uh He'll feel those needles and pins Hurtin' him, hurtin' him [Bridge] 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? [Verse 3] 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, woah, woah 'Til the day I die [Pre-Chorus] But, people I got to live now And Lord knows I should forgive now [Chorus] Yea, when it begins, uh He'll feel those needles and pins A-hurtin' him, a-stop it now Stop those needles Stop those pins Lord, when they begin, uh Oh, won't you hear what I say? Somebody, a-take 'em away A-stop 'em now, a-stop 'em Stop those needles and pins [Outro] Yeah, yeah, oh, when they begin, uh I feel those needles and pins Hurtin' me, hurtin' me Stop 'em now, needles and pins
