I've tried so hard, my dear,
to show that you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
A memory from your lonesome past
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, heart?
Another love before my time
Made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is pained now
In anger, unkind words are said
that make the teardrop star
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
and melt your cold, cold heart?
You'll never know how much it hurts
You know you need and want my love
Why do you run and hide from life,
to try it just ain't smart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind,
and melt your cold, cold heart
There was a time when I believed
But now I know your heart is
The more I learn to care for you
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart?
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart?
