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 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.

Silver threads and golden needles
cannot mend this heart of mine
