Cold, Cold Heart

[Intro]
Mitch Miller was the, uh, first musician I know of
To realize that there was gold in the hills of Nashville country music
Because of one brilliant man, his name was Hank Williams
Mitch had me record "Cold, Cold Heart"
Here it is, twenty years later
And the song still feels brand new

[Verse]
Well 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 now my heart is paying for the things I didn't do
In anger, unkind words are said that make teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?
