[Verse 1]
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
Now a memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart
[Chorus]
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart
[Verse 2]
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 they make the teardrops start
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Yeah, 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
[Chorus][x2]
