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?
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?
You'll never know how much it hurts To sit and watch you cry You know you need and want my love Yet you're afraid to try 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
