cold, cold heart
I tried so hard, my dear, to show  That you're my every dream Yet you're afraid each thing I do  Is just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past  Keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind  And melt your cold, cold heart  Another love before my time  Made your heart sad and blue And so my heart is paying now  For things I didn't do In anger unkind words are said  That make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mind  And melt your cold, cold heart  You'll never know how much it hurts  To see you sit and cry You know you need and want my love Yet you're afraid to try Why do you run and hide from lies To try, it just ain't smart Why can't I free your doubtful mind  And melt your cold, cold heart  There was a time when I believed  That you belonged to me But now I know your heart  Is shackled to a memory The more I learn to care for you The more we drift apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind  And melt your cold, cold heart
