Arthur Alligood One Silver Needle Lyrics

There I was
There I am
a lonely beggar
on the edge of town
Wearing my clothes
like the water
wears the rock
down

You got all that golden thread
and one silver needle
Think you might mend all my tears?
You got all that golden thread
and one silver needle Take and mend all my tears

I walk
I run
down these streets, cold
looking for love
Wearing my heart
on my sleeve
like an anchor
the weight is just too much

I ain't done
tearing apart
but you knew that
from the start
