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 didnt do



In anger unkind words are said

That makes the teardrops start

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?
