I tried so hard, my dear, to show that she is my every dream 
 Yet she is afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme 
 A memory from her lonesome past keeps us so far apart 
 Why can't I free her doubtful mind and melt her cold, cold heart? 
 
 Another love before my time made her 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 her doubtful mind and melt her cold, cold heart? 
 
 There was a time when I believed that she belong to me 
 But now I know her heart is shackled to a memory 
 The more I learn to care for her, the more we drift apart 
 Why can't I free her doubtful mind and melt her cold, cold heart?
