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
