Prine, John - Cold Cold Heart Lyrics






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 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?

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 and melt your cold, cold heart?
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?

    Miranda a true country singer!!

  3. S.... H....

    Loved him then and love him now
    started listening Vietnam war ""Your Flag Decal" .... "Sam Stone"
    A storyteller and poet as well as a awesome musician. Have seen him in concert a number of times Puts on a tight show, fills it up and you always get your money's Worth. My kids, grandkids and I'm hoping my ggrandkids will find a history lesson in his tunes. I am 80 yrs..

  4. S.... ....

    this is so much better than her fake twangy attention seeking accent she uses on her popular songs.

  5. C.... E....

    Awesome!!

  6. J.... R....

    Miranda 👌💕

  7. R.... W....

    John prince is a national treasure. I have intended to him for 40 years and it's still great.

  8. e.... ....

    Miranda Lambert sounds good. That dude couldn't carry a tune in a bucket.

    e.... ....

    your nuts

    Trey Stewart could not have said it better. Seeing him next month for the 3rd time

    Squamous cell carcinoma! I think he's still here damn good even with less that half a jaw.

    e.... ....

    John Prine has more talent in one little finger than you have in your whole body.

  9. G.... ....

    A great Classic, ♥

  10. S.... R....

    Hank would've loved this cover of one of his most covered songs. John Prine should be as popular as all of today's singers. Like Hank, he's an American Treasure! And Mirana Lambert has the voice of an angel! Today's LA Times contains a wonderful article on the great John Prine!

    S.... R....

    John is the best of the best

    S.... R....

    Steve Roberts the Harmony of a beautiful voice ,and a straight from the heart,( using Kristoffersons language) voice beauty ,that goes straight to your heart, awesome, and more awesome if the beautiful voice tone also has the from heart beauty.(which to me,john prine has both,+ the bonus of the Happy sound. I lack the skill of picking the right words to describe what I mean,so if you hear also the " happy sound" to ,you might get what I mean,and maybe explain it better,so the people who haven't heard it could understand and listen for it and prices voice could be called rightly so " voice of an angel) ooh, plus just a little over quality.when I hear that I start laughing and said you little fart,couldnt help but show off your horns,no wonder God gets created and kicks your ass out and you happily flutter down to rattle our cage till we shoot your ass back up to "God" and you are the only one that is enjoying the entire trip, you l(? but tune of the last of"we are the lonely keeps playing in my head) sorry, I got carried away with the struggle of trying to explain something that nobody can,maybe prine himself,course he's not worried how his voice sounds , he's in total bliss,even when it's a sad note,youre laughing like an idiot while you're crying like a fool,thank God,he felt Mercy for us and tried to tone down the andgevil, and put a warning label on his little red ass stating "attention: listening to this may result in dry heaving ,accompanied by your sides hurting, until you roll over and over,(a concern that for the strong normal people, when you gain control of your senses, you may never quite feel solid ground again, plus a side effect, that you have a real feeling of giving a rat's ass if you do or don't, " Play it fucking loud!!!!)

  11. C.... C....

  12. B.... s....
