I've 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 the 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 had made your heart sad and blue And so my heart is paying dear for things he really didn't do In anger, unkind words I said had make those 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 I need, I want your love yet you're afraid to try Why do you run and hide from life to try it just ain't smart? Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart?
