Cold, Cold Heart

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 mem'ry from your lonesome past Keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your debtful 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 didn't do In anger unkind words are said That make the teardrops start Why can't I free your debtful 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 Why do you run and hide from life To try it just ain't smart Why can't I free your debtful mind And melt your cold, cold heart
