Try Don Gibson, that is probably the best known version, though Carl Butler wrote it.

MY TEARS DON'T SHOW
(Carl Butler)
© '60 Peer International

I've learned to hide my bleed within my heart
And to conceal the thing that hurts me so
But everytime somebody calls your name
Although I've cried for you my tears don't show

For my heart is big enough to hold a million tears
Alone with all these memories I've treasured through the years
These memories that make the teardrops flow
Although I've cried for you my tears don't show

For my heart is big enough...(REPEAT)

And--You can hear a Real Audio clip at Barnes & Noble.

John Hartford recorded this song on two of his albums: "Live from Mountain Stage" and "No End of Love."

That's all the words on line, all right, but it seems to me I recall more:

. . . If they could only see inside my heart,
They would see the memories that I still treasure there;
They would see how much I cried and know how much I care,
Sweet memories, that make the teardrops flow,
Although I cried for you, my tears don't show!

Now that's a sentimental song!

Here's what I hear on Roy Acuff's Version...

MY TEARS DON'T SHOW
Roy Acuff

I've learned to hide my grief within my heart
And to conceal the things that hurt me so
For everytime somebody calls your name
I cry for you, but still my tears don't show

For my heart is big enough to hold a million tears
Along with all the mem-ries I've treasured through the years
Sweet memories that made the teardrops flow
Although I cry for you my tears don't show
