Lyrics Eddy Arnold

Eddy Arnold

Cold, Cold Heart

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 those teardrops start

Why can't I free your doubtful mind

And melt your cold, cold heart.

--- Instrumental ---

There was a time when I believed

That you belonged to me

But now I see 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...
