| I don’t want your lonely mansion
|
| With a tear in every room
|
| All I want is the love you promised
|
| Beneath the haloed moon
|
| But you think I should be happy
|
| With your money and your name
|
| And I hide my tears in sorrow
|
| While you play your cheatin' game
|
| Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine
|
| And I dare not drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine
|
| You can’t buy my love with money
|
| For I never was that kind
|
| Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine
