Lyrics I Heard You Crying In Your Sleep - Hank Williams

I Heard You Crying In Your Sleep

I know you tried your best to love me,\nYou smiled when your heart told you to weep;\nYou tried to pretend that you were happy,\nLast night I heard you crying in your sleep.\nYou gave the best years of your life, Dear,\nAnd each precious vow you tried to keep;\nI love you so much I want you happy,\nLast night I heard you crying in your sleep.\n--- Instrumental ---\nYour heart is yearning for an old love,\nWith new love it’s useless to compete;\nIt hurts me to know you are unhappy,\n'Cause, last night I heard you crying in your sleep.\nYou know that you are free to go, Dear,\nAnd don’t mind if I start to weep;\nI know I can never make you happy,\n'Cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep…
