Pins and Needles - Margaret Glaspy

Looks like I near forgot who I was

To be who you want

Yes, I’ve been sitting silent

Because I thought you liked me quiet

But I don’t wanna watch my mouth

No, I don’t wanna act like I can’t figure it out

I don’t wanna hold you till I’m good and ready to

Oh I don’t wanna be

On pins and needles

Around you

Of all people

Of all people

I can’t live and know

That there are places we can’t go

What are we gonna do

If we can’t be true?

'Cause I don’t wanna watch my mouth

No, I don’t wanna act like I can’t figure it out

I don’t wanna hold you 'til I’m good and ready to

Oh I don’t wanna be

On pins and needles

Around you

Of all people

Oh I don’t wanna be

On pins and needles

Around you

Of all people

Of all people

Yes, I could try my best to

Nod and say «yes» to you

Even when my heart says «no»

Swallow my suggestions

Not ask too many questions

Hide all of my friends

Who’s humor might offend you

Oh I don’t wanna watch my mouth

No, I don’t wanna act like I can’t figure it out

I don’t wanna hold you till I’m good and ready to

Oh I don’t wanna be

On pins and needles

Around you

Of all people

Of all people
