There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me
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?
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?
The more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart
In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start

But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory
Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?
