I try so hard, my dear, to show that youre my every dream

Yet, youre afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme

A memory from your lonesome past, keeps us so far apart

Why cant 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 cant I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart



Youll never know how much it hurts to see you set and cry

You know you need and want my love, yet your afraid to try

Why do you run and hide from life, to try it just aint smart

Why cant I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart



There was a time when I believed that you belong 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 cant I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart
