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?
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?
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?
