Tears On My Pillow - Goapele

I think I finally understand

How you could love someone and leave them

It must be hard to be a man

Holding back so many feelings

I saw you slip away

Long before you gave reasons

Couldn’t hold you down if you wanted to go

Each time I try

My tears land straight on my pillow

Each time I try

My tears land straight on my pillow

Each time I try

My tears land straight on my pillow

'Cause there’s no other way

For me to let go

I didn’t wanna even care

I didn’t wanna even miss you

'Cause you told me, you’d be there

Now should I even try to reach you?

I look in the mirror

I see your face in mine

And it’s much clearer now

I need you in my life

But, each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

Each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

Each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

'Cause there’s no other way

For me to let go

I see it in your eyes, your laugh is a disguise

It used to be magic to me, you’re giving me no choice

I hear it in your voice and it’s so sad to me

But I think forgiveness is the season

Wish you could stay I have my reasons

I’m still trying to hold on to something that’s gone

Can’t make you stay here with me

Oh, but each time I try

It’s like I’m crying in vain

Each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

Each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

'Cause there’s no other way

For me to let go

Each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

Each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

Each time I try

My tears land straight on that pillow

'Cause there’s no other way

For me to let go
