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

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…
