Tears On My Pillow

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
