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 its 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 if I start to weep
I know I can never make you happy
Cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep
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 its 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 if I start to weep I know I can never make you happy Cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep Explain Request ×
