Lyrics

[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
[Verse 2]
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 3]
Another love before my time
Made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now
For things I didn't do
[Verse 4]
In anger, unkind words I said
That make the teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart?
[Verse 5]
There was a time when I believed
That you belonged to me
But now, I know your heart is shackled
To a memory
[Verse 6]
The more I learned to care for you
The more we drift apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart?
Hey, oh
