Lyrics

Just An Old Tear-Stained Letter

In a box inside my closet
Behind some seldom worn old clothes
I keep my life's locked up treasures
The kinds of things that no one knows
And if you looked you'd find my darlin'
A photograph of you and me
And lyin' right along beside it
Is something you once sent to me

Chorus
Just an old tear-stained letter
I read it over once again
Just an old tear-stained letter
That asked if we could still be friends
Just an old tear-stained letter
Is all that I have left of you
Just an old tear-stained letter
Tear stained memories of you

I guess I should have seen it coming
It was really plain as day
All the cards lay on the table
When the smoke had cleared away
If I could turn the hands of time
Push back the sand that's washed away
I'd give half of my tomorrows
If I could be with you today

Chorus
Just an old tear-stained letter
I read it over once again
Just an old tear-stained letter
That asked if we could still be friends
Just an old tear-stained letter
Is all that I have left of you
Just an old tear-stained letter
Tear stained memories of you

Just an old tear-stained letter
Tear-stained memories of you
