(Hank Williams)
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...
