I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room
I just want the love you promised beneath the halo'd moon
But you think I should be happy with your money and your name
And pretend that I don't notice while you play your cheating games
Silver threads and golden needles can t patch up this heart of mine
And I never 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 can t patch up this heart of mine
I grew up in a faded keno where love is a sacred thing
You grew up in silk and satin where love is a passing game
I know now you never loved me and I know I was the fool
To think your pride would let you live by the golden rule
Silver threads and golden needles can t patch up this heart of mine
And I never 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 can t patch up this heart of mine
