166. COLD, COLD HEART 1951 |
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 CANT I FREE YOUR DOUBTFUL MIND
AND MELT YOUR COLD, COLD HEART?
