Lyrics

I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room

All I want's the love you promised beneath the haloed moon

But you think I should be happy with your money and your name

And hide myself in sorrow while you play your cheating game


Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine

And I dare not drown my sorrows in the warm glow of your wine

You can't buy my love with money cause 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

And I dare not drown my sorrows in the warm glow of your wine

You can't buy my love with money cause 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
