I know you tried your best to love me you smiled when your heart told you to weep
You tried to pretend that you were happy last night I heard you crying in your sleep
You gave the best years of your life dear and each precious vow you tried to keep
I love you so much I want you happy last night I heard you crying in your sleep
[ steel ]
Your heart is yearning for an old love with new love it's useless to complete
It hurts me to know you are unhappy cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep
You know that you are free to go dear and don't mind if I start to weep
I know I can never make you happy cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep
You tried to pretend that you were happy last night I heard you crying in your sleep
You gave the best years of your life dear and each precious vow you tried to keep
I love you so much I want you happy last night I heard you crying in your sleep
[ steel ]
Your heart is yearning for an old love with new love it's useless to complete
It hurts me to know you are unhappy cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep
You know that you are free to go dear and don't mind if I start to weep
I know I can never make you happy cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep
