nI [D] tried so hard my dear to show that you're my every [A7]  dream nYet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil [D] scheme nA mem'ry from your lonesome past keeps us [D7] so far a-{[G]} part nWhy [A7] can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold, Cold [D] Heart. n nAnother	love before my time made your heart sad	and blue nAnd so my heart	is paying now for things I didn't do nIn anger, unkind words are said that make the teardrops start nWhy can't I free your doubtful mind, and melt your Cold, Cold Heart. n nYou'll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry nYou know you need and want my love yet you're afraid to	try nWhy do you run and hide from life, to try it just ain't smart nWhy can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold, Cold Heart. n nThere was a time when I	believed that you belonged to me nBut now	I know your heart is shackled to a memory nThe more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart nWhy can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold, Cold Heart.
