Intro: Verse 1 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 memory from your lonesome past Keeps us so far apart... Why can't I free your doubtful mind And melt your cold cold heart verse 2 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 doubtful mind And melt your cold cold heart verse 3 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 lies To try it just ain't smart Outro: Why can't I free your doubtful mind And melt your cold cold heart
