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
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
Another crime before my time
Made your heart sad and blue
And so now you make me pay
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 never see you smile
You know you need and want to laugh
Yet you claim it's not your style
Why do you hide behind that mask
I'm trying to do my part
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
You won't admit that we're the same
And it's tearing me apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold cold heart
