Silver Threads & Golden Needles - Brenda Lee

I don’t want your golden mansion

With your tear in every room

All I want is the love you promise

Beneath the halo moon.

And you think I could be happy

With your money and your name

And hide myself in sorrow

While you play your cheating games.

Silver threads and golden needles

Cannot mend this heart of mine

And I cannot ease my sorrow

In the warmth of your wine.

You can’t buy my love for money

Because I never was that kind

Silver threads and golden needles

Cannot mend this heart of mine.

Let it go!

I do not want your golden mansion

With your tear in every room

And I don’t want all the love that you promised

Beneath the halo moon.

And you think I could be happy

With your money and your name

And hide myself in sorrow

While you play your cheating games.

Silver threads and golden needles

Cannot mend this heart of mine

And I cannot ease my sorrow

In the warmth of your wine.

You can’t buy my love for money

Because I never was that kind

Silver threads and golden needles

Cannot mend this heart of mine.

Silver threads and golden needles

Cannot mend this heart of mine…
