Lyrics Last Knight I Heard You Crying in Your Sleep - Hank Williams

Last Knight 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
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
--- Instrumental ---
Your heart is yearning for an old love
With new love it’s useless to compete;
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…
