I Cried Myself Awake (1969) Songtext
von George Jones

Last night, I dreamed that you told me, "goodbye"
And in my sleep, the teardrops filled my eyes
It seemed so real, I thought my heart would break
Last night, I cried myself awake

I cried myself awake, and laid there tremblin′
As I reach for you, my hand began to shake
And when I touched your arm, early in the darkness
I knew, that I had cried myself awake


I know now, just how empty, life would be
If you should ever, take your love from me
To lose you, would be more than I could take
Last night, I cried myself awake

I cried myself awake, and laid there tremblin'
As I reach for you, my hand began to shake
And when I touched your arm, early in the darkness
Then, I knew, that I had cried myself awake

Last night, I cried myself awake
