Cold, Cold Heart
Hank Williams, Sr.
I tried so hard, my dear, to show that she's my every dream
Yet she's afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
A memory from her lonesome past keeps us so far apart
Why can't I free her doubtful mind and melt her cold, cold heart?
Another love before my time made her 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 her doubtful mind and melt her cold, cold heart?
There was a time when I believed that she belonged to me
But now I know her heart is shackled to a memory
The more I learn to care for her, the more we drift apart
Why can't I free her doubtful mind and melt her cold, cold heart?
