Cold Cold Heart
Unveiling the Pain Within: Jerry Lee Lewis's Cold Cold Heart
Lyrics
I tried so hard, my dear, to show
I made significant efforts to demonstrate
That you're my every dream
That you are the central figure in my every aspiration
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
However, you are apprehensive that each action of mine
Is just some evil scheme
Is perceived as a malicious plan
A memory from your lonesome past
A recollection from your isolated history
Keeps us so far apart
Keeps us distanced
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
Why can't I alleviate the doubts in your mind
And melt your cold, cold heart
And warm your emotionally distant heart
Another love before my time
Another love before my presence
Made your heart sad and blue
Caused your heart to be sorrowful and despondent
And so my heart is paying now
Consequently, my heart is now experiencing consequences
For things I didn't do
For actions I did not commit
In anger unkind words are said
In moments of anger, hurtful words are spoken
That make the teardrops start
Triggering the onset of tears
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
Why can't I dispel the uncertainties in your mind
And melt your cold, cold heart
And dissolve the iciness in your heart
You'll never know how much it hurts
You will never comprehend the depth of pain
To see you sit and cry
Observing you seated in sorrow and weeping
You know you need and want my love
You acknowledge the necessity and desire for my love
Yet you're afraid to try
Yet, you are hesitant to make an attempt
Why do you run and hide from lies
Why do you evade and conceal from truths
To try, it just ain't smart
Attempting it is simply not wise
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
Why can't I dispel the uncertainties in your mind
And melt your cold, cold heart
And dissolve the iciness in your heart
There was a time when I believed
There was a period when I held the belief
That you belonged to me
That you were exclusively mine
But now I know your heart
Yet now I understand that your heart
Is shackled to a memory
Is tethered to a distant memory
The more I learn to care for you
The more my affection for you grows
The more we drift apart
The more we move apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
Why can't I dispel the uncertainties in your mind
And melt your cold, cold heart
And dissolve the iciness in your heart
