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
