TEARS ON MY PILLOW 
(Gene Autry / Fred Rose)

as recorded by The McGuire Sisters
1961


Tears on my pillow each morning,
I cry when I dream about you!
When I should be sleeping
I just lay there weeping,
Wondering if you're weeping too!

I'm crying so hard to forget you,
But that's not so easy to do,
With tears on my pillow each morning,
Tears that I've shed over you!

Oh, you know we were so happy when love lingered on,
Back in the sweet used to be, (used to be)
But now I'm so lonely because you are gone,
Leaving a sad memory!  (memory)

I'm crying so hard to forget you,
But that's not so easy to do,
With tears on my pillow each morning,
Tears that I've shed over you! (tears on my pillow)
