Evil Scheme A memory from your lonesome past Keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind 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 I said That make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mind Melt your cold, cold heart? You 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 Melt your cold, cold heart? Now 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 Melt your cold, cold heart? Why can't I free your doubtful mind Melt your cold, cold heart? Yeah, girl, why can't I melt your cold, cold heart? And free your doubtful mind, girl?
