[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
A mem'ry from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart
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 payin' now for things I didn't do
In anger, unkind words are said that make the teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?
[Xylophone Solo]
[Verse 4]
There was a time when I believed that you belongеd to me
But now I know your heart is shackled to a mеmory
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?
[Bridge]
[Verse 3]
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?
[Outro]
