Cold, Cold Heart

Nat King Cole · Just One Of Those Things/let's Face The Music [2007]

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 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 an' 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?



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?
