Cold Cold Heart Lyrics - Hank Locklin

I 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 mem'ry from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart 

Why can't I free your debtful 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 are said that make the teardrops start 

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

[ strings ] 

The more I learn to care for you the more we drift apart 

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