I tried so hard my dear to show
that you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
A memory from your lonesome past
Why can't I free your doubtful mind,
and melt your cold, cold heart
Another love before my time
made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now
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
You'll never know how much it hurts
You know you need and want my love
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
There was a time when I believed
But now I know your heart
The more I learn to care for you,
Why can't I free your doubtful mind,
and melt your cold, cold heart
