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 an' 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 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? |
