George Jones — 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...
