the temptations - truly yours lyrics

[intro]
(truly yours
that’s what the letter read
truly yours
that’s what the letter read)

[verse 1]
as i read the words written in your letter
the tears began to rise
i could read between the lines, though you thought it was better
not to use the words, “goodbye”
and as i struggled to hold my pride, suddenly i broke down and i cried
your letter ended

[chorus]
truly yours
when you know that you’re no longer truly mine
though you signed it truly yours
when you know you’re no longer truly mine
i’m left behind

[verse 2]
now, it’s painfully clear that you been concealing
your feelings behind lies
and i feel so foolish to have ever believed you
and to think i’ve even cried
but the one thing i’ll never understand, baby
how you’d find the nerve to put a pen in your hand
and sign your letter
[chorus]
truly yours
when you know you were never truly mine
how did you sign it truly yours
when you know, you know that you were never truly mine?
just mean you been lying

(truly yours)
(that’s what the letter read)
(truly yours) oh, baby
(that’s what the letter read) ooh

[verse 3]
although you’re gone and i’m left alone
and we are so, so far apart
the sh+ll of a man that you discarded behind
still loved you with all his heart, baby
but the one thing i’ll never, never understand
how you find the nerve to put a pen in your hand
and sign your letter

[chorus]
truly yours
when you know that you were never, never, never truly mine
how did you sign it (truly yours) truly yours, baby
when you know, you know you were never truly mine
oh, baby
how did you sign it (truly yours)
how did you sign it, baby, truly yours, how do you sign it
when you know that you were never truly mine
i signed your letter truly yours
when you know, you know you were never truly mine

i’m left behind, baby (truly yours)
you signed it, truly, truly, truly, when you know you were never truly mine, baby
