Your Cold Cold Heart

Roy Orbison · Big O Country Album

I try 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 memory 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 fore you, the more we drift apart



Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart.
