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
