Cold Cold Heart

Petula Clark

I've 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
