Cold Cold Heart Lyrics - Kitty Wells

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 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 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?
