The tenth Top 20 entry for the mighty Temptations, and one of the rare singles by this point where Eddie Kendricks mostly handled the lead vocals. David Ruffin is out front during the bridge and near the end, though. Written by Roger Penzabene, who was a tragic footnote in Motown's history. He wrote this uplifting love song for his wife but found out later she was messing around on him. Roger composed a couple more tunes for the Temps with an unhappier tone, then committed suicide.
