I guess no lyricist/producer used your voice correctly.
Except Norman Whitfield's during his days with the Temptations.
When he wrote the first phase  of Heavenly, he sealed the deal.

The words , so you look at love beautifully sung by you.
Expressed a deep sentimental expression of feelings.
With support from your fellow mate Damon Harris on harmony.
You both became a Temptation's forever.

So it's strange that you both die within February just a week or so apart.
Maaybe things are done for a reason.
And sometimes death comes down to that.

But when people think of the seventies Temptations.
They must think of you two.
For Papa couldn't be a rollin' stone.
Without your vocals upon the song.

Superstar, wouldn't know their true friend.
If you wasn't addressing it in a song.

Say Damon and Richard Street together.
You most closely connected with one another.
Just like David and Eddie.

Heaven clouds will open up and shine a little more.
Because the choir of angelic bliss have gotten two more.
