Needles And Pins Lyrics - Tom Petty

I saw her today, I saw her face 

It was the face I loved and I knew 

I had to run away 

And get down on my knees and pray 

That there'd come a day 

And still it begins 

Because of all my pride 

The tears I gotta hide 

Oh, I thought I was smart, I wanted her 

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 

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 

A-hurtin her, a-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 the face I loved and I knew 

I had to run away 

And get down on my knees and pray 

That there'd come a day 

Photos 

But still they begin 

Because of all my pride 

The tears I gotta hide 

Oh, needles and pins
