I Heard You Crying In Your Sleep lyrics

I Heard You Crying In Your Sleep
(written by Hank Williams)


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
But 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
But last night I heard you crying in your sleep

Your heart is yearning for an old love
With new love it`s useless to compete
It hurts me to know you are unhappy
But last night I heard you crying in your sleep

You know that you are free to go dear
And don`t mind me if I start to weep
I know I can never make you happy
`Cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep
