Cold, Cold Heart Songtext
von Johnny Cash

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 and blue
And so my heart is paying now
For things I didn't do
In anger unkind words are said
That make a teardrop 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?
