Lyrics Tear-Stained Letter (Masters Version) - The Temptations

Tear-stained the letter
I see it stained the letter now
I see you stained that letter now
I see you stained that letter now
Oh, oh, ooh-oh (stained that letter)
As what I received it from you
It made me, made me realize you still
You still love me too (tear-stained letter)
Darling, darling, darling, darling
It really took me by surprise
To know after all, all of these years
I brought tears into your eyes
I had started so many letters now
Wanting to say the same things to you
But I had to tear them up because
I started crying too
Why did you have to send me
(Tear-stained letter)
Oh, oh, ooh-oh
And now you gat me
You gat me to crying too
A tear-stained letter gon′ make you feel a little better
Tears, tears, tears, tears, tears, tears, stained tears
Tear-stained letter, love
A tear-stained letter
Oh, you don't have to find no more tear stains
Tear stains, tear stains
A tear-stained letter
A tear-stained letter
Oh, after I get it, now I can′t quit
Now tears, tears, tears, tears, tears
Her tear-stained letter
