I D tried so hard my dear to show that you're my every A7  dream 
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil D scheme 
A mem'ry from your lonesome past keeps us D7 so far a-{G} part 
Why A7 can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold, Cold D Heart. 
 
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 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 to see you sit and 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. 
 
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.
