Patty Loveless "Tear-Stained Letter" |
(Richard Thompson) It was three in the mornin' when he took me apart He wrecked my house and he wrecked my heart He danced on my head like Arthur Murray The scars ain't never goin' to mend in a hurry. Just when I thought that things would get better Right through the door came a tear stained letter Whoa, oh, oh Lord, Lord, cry and cry if it makes you feel better Set it all down in a tear stained letter. Whoa, oh, oh Lord, Lord, cry and cry if it makes you feel better Set it all down in a tear stained letter. --- Instrumental --- Well, my head was spinnin' just a little to fast It was writin' checks that my body couldn't cash I jumped to my feet I was reelin' and a dizzy I went for the phone but the line was busy. Just when I thought that things would get better Right through the door came a tear stained letter Whoa, oh, oh Lord, Lord, cry and cry if it makes you feel better Set it all down in a tear stained letter. --- Instrumental --- Now I like coffee and I like tea but I just don't like this feelin' in me It makes me nervous it gives me the hives looking for the truth in a pack of lies Just when I thought that things would get better Right through the door came a tear stained letter Whoa, oh, oh Lord, Lord, cry and cry if it makes you feel better Set it all down in a tear stained letter. Whoa, oh, oh Lord, Lord, cry and cry if it makes you feel better Set it all down in a tear stained letter... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
