Cold, Cold Heart Lyrics - So Lonesome I Could Cry - Charlie Rich

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 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 I said that make the teardrops start 

Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart 

(Cold, cold heart) 

There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me 

But now I know your heart is shackled to that 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
