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
