Cold, Cold Heart
By Hank Williams
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 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
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?
Because you run and hide
from life
We now have to part.
I’ll never free your
doubtful mind
or
melt your cold, cold heart.
