Lyrics:

I tried so hard my dear to show

That you're my everything
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 really didn't do
In anger unkind words were 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 life,

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
