C G7 I tried so hard my dear to show that youʼre my every dream C Yet youʼre afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme C7 F A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart G7 C Why canʼt I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart G7 Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue C And so my heart is paying now for things I didnʼt do C7 F In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start G7 C Why canʼt I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart G7 Youʼll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry C You know you need and want my love yet youʼre afraid to try C7 F Why do you run and hide from life to try it just ainʼt smart G7 C Why canʼt I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart G7 There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me C But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory C7 F The more I learn to care for you the more we drift apart G7 C Why canʼt I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart
