Richard Thompson - Tear-Stained Letter Lyrics




It was three in the morning when she took me apart
She wrecked the furniture, she wrecked my heart
She danced on my head like Arthur Murray
The scars ain't never going to mend in a hurry

Just when I thought I could learn to forget her
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better

Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love, love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

Well my head was beating like a song by the Clash
It was writing checks that my body couldn't cash
Got to my kneest, I was reeling and dizzy
I went for the phone but the line was busy

Just when I thought that things would get better
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh help me please
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better

Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love, love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

Well I like coffee and I like tea
But I just don't like this fiddle-di-dee
It makes me nervous, it gives me the hives
Waiting for a kiss from a bunch of fives

Just when I think I could learn to forget her
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love, love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

Oh, oh, oh love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh, love, love, love, love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

Oh, oh, oh cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

Oh, oh, oh cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
